Because then the fibers are weakened along the line. It's the same if you cut something partway through and then tear it.

Why don't paper trimmers cut straight?

What to do when your paper trimmer does not cut straight First check the paper trimmer blade. If the blade needs to be replaced the trimmer will begin to cut with rough edges and often not on a straight line. Second, if your paper trimmer has a replaceable piece underneath the blade (this is a piece that would touch the backside of the paper, where the blade would glide across as it cut through the paper), try to replace that. With time those pieces become warped and will cut crooked. Third, make sure you are lining your paper up along the grid. If all else fails, it is possible that you may need to invest in a better paper trimmer. Some popular paper trimmers that people feel cut straight edges are the Creative Memories 12" paper trimmer and the paper trimmer made by Provo Craft, called the Cutterpede.
