Having come to no conclusion about whether a taper does anything to the opening of the reed, I've standardized to scraping off the ends for all of my reeds. I do it for my oboe reeds because, yes, it does make the tie-on look nicer, without the bump. I do it for my EH and baroque oboe reeds because they will crack otherwise. EH cane, in my experience, has a higher tendency to crack if left unthinned, and my baroque oboe reeds REALLY like to crack if I don't scrape the ends thinner.
