For me, it would be - but that's me.
If your sewn together pieces are laying flat enough to suit you and you can live with cut off points, finish it off and call it a learning experience. If this is done consistently, then it will look 'the same' throughout the quilt top and you can say that you planned to do it that way.
For next time, when you sew the shapes together, the triangle tips should end up being 1/4 inch from the edge - it looks like on most of them on this one, the point/tip is at the edge - and then when the strips are sewn together, the point disappears.
