I've heard it said (hopefully someone can actually give a source) that the practice of grinding the tips was developed during the peninsular campaign. Because none of the household cavalry was deployed to the peninsular they were unaware of this field modification and someone with experience with it choose to inform them via the order prior to Waterloo.
