Likely for a positive stop for the clips that hold a set of panniers on the rack.

My guess is another stop point to keep things from sliding. Could be wrong though

These are for you to place or Ortleib (used to be the number 1 pannier brand before bikepacking bags were popular) clip-on panniers without them sliding. The gap between the notch and the strut is exactly the gap for the clips that hold them on.

Exactly as someone said, stops for forward mounted panniers.

What’s a rack without a pair of nips?
