Should roofing nails be visible in the attic?

Should roofing nails be visible in the attic? I replaced the roof a few months ago and realized the roofing nails stick out in the attic, which was not there before. This might can cause leaking, moisture, and mold. I believe they used the wrong size of the nail. What do you suggest? roof company said it is "standard" Thank you in advance!

It’s not ideal, but it’s also not uncommon or a big issue. The shingles overlap and the nails are under another shingle. Regardless of the length, there is a puncture hole.  Personally, I wouldn’t sweat it.
