They bother me but, sadly, properly sized ones tend to break more quickly.

Yes. They have to be thick. If they aren't, half of the figures would have lost theirs before you even open the package.
It's just like horse's legs. They have to be sturdy if you're going to handle them.

Some great Love/Life advice from "the OFM". Good for horses, good women.

yes, but there is "oversized "and there is "Oversized".
on-scale-bayonets would be almost impossible to cast, even in 28mm, so oversizing is mandatory

but when your bayonet is thicker than the musket, or the arms of the bearer, it's just lazy engraving
