Default P08 Frame Abutment Projections???

I was looking at Vlim's attachment in mrerick's thread on Luger Frame Tooling Marks Study and the little projections on the frame abutment are missing on the post-war Mauser and Swiss frames...(pic of the post-war Mauser and my wartime P08 attached)...

What exactly were these projections supposed to do??? They were evidently unnecessary or Mauser/Swiss would have kept them...
