Yes, it is, and the main reason is pressure.

It has a small end, so that there is a more concentrated pressure being applied to whatever you push it in to.

There is a big surface area at the end, so that you don't injury your thumb hen pressing down; the pressure is spread out all across it, reducing pain.

Because of the large area, you can apply the most pressure you can.
