It's mostly taken on a case-by-case basis with general rules of thumb that not everyone is aware of or will make exceptions for due to reasons at the time. "OK until we get a better one" vs "let's wait and hope for better" vs never getting that better one.

I could suggest we come up with a written concrete list of rules for what makes a good profile image that way there's a solid reference no matter who is around for discussion or deciding to attempt to crop the image. However there will always be something that will set off opinions, like the "quality" vs "current" on the Merc and Em pics.
