Well, "should" is a tricky term on LJ, where the etiquette rules aren't very well established. That's why I make it a point not to tell people what/how they should and shouldn't post on their LJ.
That said, there are a few reasons not to post quiz results without a cut. One is that some fans have A LOT of people on their flists, and seeing the same quiz result over and over is simply irritating.
Another is that they may make some peoples' flist layouts not display properly, either because they're too wide for the column, or because they use poorly-coded HTML tables.
Something else to think about is that when an image is posted without a cut, it ends up wasting the bandwidth of the server it's on, because it's refreshed so often by people checking their flists. It can also waste the time of the people doing the checking -- their connection may be slow, and they may not want to re-load that image every time they check their flist.
Again, I'm not saying people *should* do this or that, just sharing information.
