Saves being poked in the eye, even for an hour. It’s a good habit.

Environmentalism?

If they cut the ends off when fixing them they generate and have to
dispose of the waste.

If they don't cut the ends off they generate no waste. All the ties are
left entire to be recycled together i.d.c. - and become some other
bugger's problem ;)

And mine, hence the comment.
Even with lumps of glass in the way these days, the little buggers get

Mind you, the people who don't use cable ties at all are even worse.
