Worst idea since trapping your balls ia vice!
Springs are designed to fill a gap and. Give correct ride height without dislocation. Removing a coil removes the springs ability to fill that void.
You go over a crest or bump, car goes light, spring fully extends, comes out of seat, car comes back under weight and compression, no spring, serious lack of control and death etc!,,,
A little extreme but that's potentially the result of cutting springs, especially rears that arent wrapped around a damper
