It's not a cut, it's more a poke. Nowadays it's almost painless, about 
the same as pinching your fingertip between your fingernails (of the 
other hand, of course). I'd guess it's because it's all capilaries there 
(and convenient of course), so it's really unlikely to bleed long enough 
to get infected or anything. I.e., it clots really fast, and if you only 
need a drop or two, there you go.
