Its far better for your bike to fit well than be slightly more appreciated by a bunch of people on the internet.
This, its you riding the bike afterall. But if you need much more than around 40mm of spacers below the stem then the likely hood is that the frame doesn't fit you/fit your needs. No problems about a shit tonn of spacers on top of the stem though, cutting that is just for aesthetics/aerodynamics or whatever.
