Usually stuff printed in sheets is cut in a few ways.
The excess edges are removed first, then the rows cut so it's strips, then the strips are cut into individual pieces.
If there's a lot of small things that makes for strips that can be hard to handle. So the sheet may be cut into more manageable blocks before cutting into strips then individual items.
There's enough diamond cut cards that it's likely they cut strips and either had a hard time handling them, or one of the cutters wasn't setup properly.
If the machine is setup right and the operator follows good practices the cards should be square. If there's a mechanical problem or the operator doesn't follow good practices all sorts of stuff can happen. Diamond cuts are common, but a non-paralell cut is just as likely.
One thing that amazes me is that I've never seen one showing any hint of being cut back up rather than face up.
