Because the thinner the springs are at the ends where they ride in the little saddles on the keys, the less friction they create and the more smoothly the keys move. Also, that makes the springs 'progressive' in their spring rate (effectively softer at the very tip and stiffer towards the middle) which also improves the feel of the key action.
Yes, they are sharp! If you work on clarinets long enough, you get used to being jabbed frequently...............
