How so? In what way could they hurt you? (I’m genuinely curious incase I ever become a blacksmith designing armor or something lol)

If they hit you from the top, instead of sliding to the side those shitty things would guard the sword straight to your unprotected Neck

Oh I see, makes a lot of sense. Thanks!

Armor should direct the blade away from your neck at all times

Only if you leave your arms down, if you raise them it would keep your neck protected.

So after you did a swing, or if you are just holding a shield in front of you, they leave a giant gap for the sword.

?

Compared to not having them?

Yeah, they both stand out, which stops the sword from sliding off, and they are even arched, which can lead the sword closer to the neck.
