It's a personal preference for how you want to set up the car. There is never a requirement to trim a bump-stop. E46 M3 owners trim the stock bump-stops in stock classes to increase grip. Mini guys trim the fronts to increase front grip and let the rear slide more. You can tune the bump-stops like any other part of the suspension. They're not just a safety device to prevent shock bottoming; they also play a role in increasing roll stiffness, spring rate, etc.
