Squaring does not affect the order of nearest points, then with knn the same data points should be chosen.
And about noice
euclidean seems to be even more tolerant when noice has less energy than the main dimensions.
So manhattan seems to be more "elite-oriented", dropping points with offsets in another dimension more aggressively.
Anyway, according to https://datascience.stackexchange.com/questions/20075/when-would-one-use-manhattan-distance-as-opposite-to-euclidean-distance
Manhattan distance (L1 norm) may be preferable to Euclidean distance (L2 norm) for the case of high dimensional data:
