The general belief is that you take a big risk breaking your ankle and all the bones in your feet when you use your instep, when you use your shin the risk to your weapon tends to be a lot less and the better chance is that you'll break whatever you hit.

That said, try telling Anderson Silva that shins don't break and personally I'm a believer in 'If it works use it'.

Okay

Occasions.
