I know you're not suppose to cut off the lower end of the staple as it's said to be actually removing a small section of the bore as it were and cause intonation problems.

It is indeed OK. This is how staples are offered in different lengths. Cutting from the top would make the throat of the staple fatter, making tying/ staple-shaper tip match different for different staple lengths. Also, (at least here in the States), oboists cut from the bottom when they shorten their staples.
