Would a scratch on a plastic pipe need to be a pretty drastic to cause an issue? Imagine any scratches near on on were positioning a fitting aren't ok as would allow the oring to seal
 
A mate of mine had to replace half a ceiling because of a scratch on a plastic pipe under a fitting.

Correct, you want a nice clean end. A compression fitting could be an option.
