It makes a nice home for bees and wasps, but I think it was done that way for simplicity.
It may give cross winds one less surface plane to push upon as well.
On second thought, once that trailer cranks all the way over you may not want anything extra sticking out which could interfere with the turning radius.
That is the reason for the angled cut at least. And if not for turning clearances to the cab I assume they would have went all the way to the corner edges at 90 degrees blunt.
Closing those ends might be nice but an unnecessary complexity.
