For sure. It's a tough one in many cases since its hard to 100% see stick to head contact unless there is some reaction from the guy that gets clipped. But if you purposely snap your head back or hold your face with a cage so the ref sees contact that's a dick move.
I've just come to accept that there will be more missed calls with a cage. Intact face > powerplay any day of the year
