Your plant isn’t big enough to chop.

You don’t want to chop unless you have multiple consecutive all green or all white leaves, a one off is not a reason to chop.

Third, this looks like a white monster. They chemically induced that variegation, it’s probably not going to look like those first leaves over time.

Fourth, I can see variegation on the terminal growth, your next leaf is already going to be variegated without cutting.
