Default Leafless pseudobulbs, to prune or not to prune?

I think this Cattleya loddigesii would look much more attractive if I would prune out a dozen or more of the old leafless pseudobulbs. Does anyone do this with their catts? I know that they're a store of reserve energy for the plant, but this one's looking a bit like a weed to me.
