I always cut it that way. Sometimes the squash is pointy (or has a bit
of stem that needs to be cut off one end). The two I bought (only
showed one of them) were fairly spherical and not at all pointy. They
sat very nicely on the baking sheet. Otherwise I'd have trimmed a small
bit of the point off the end.
