No, in many cases you may want to preserve unit cell information. This
allows you e.g. to re-image in the future if you want (centering on a
different part of the molecule) etc. Once you remove the box information
you're stuck with the trajectory as-is.

You can prevent box information from being written to a trajectory if you
want with the 'nobox' keyword for the trajout/outtraj commands. You can
also remove box information with 'box nobox' (for trajectory processing) or
'parmbox nobox' (to modify box info in the topology itself).

Hope this helps,

-Dan
