I was taught to print to your format, and frame to the print. Now I haven't used a 2 1/4 square format camera in quite some time, but that's what I did.

Tell that to people who shot with 6x6 cameras.  It's impossible to
shoot with a square frame and not need to crop for standard

In any event, your answer was what I suspected the case was.  Cropping is
cropping and is not a substitute for compositional framing.  I'll never be a

Thanks again,
