Default Nail points in underside of roof deck: safety issue

Gurus:

I had a new roof installed after tearing off the old one. The nail
points are protruding (nearly 1/4") through the underside of the deck,
in the attic. That could be a safety issue in areas that we use for
storage. I sure wouldn't want to come up between the rafters and slice
open my head on a sharp nail!

If I wanted to remedy the situation in some high-traffic areas, would
it be possble to cut the points off with some sort of snips, or do you
have a better idea?
