Right? Crimp that jacket in there, it'll hold better and looks cleaner.

I have to admit, I'm confused as to what's wrong here.

I'll hazard a guess at the OP not liking it when people cut network cables instead of spending a little more time to recover what would have been a perfectly working cable.

The cable is much too short to be useful and to top it off the other end is missing the jack connector.

insulation does not go all the way into the jack - makes for more tension on the wires, and shorter cable lifespan.
OP may not like the T-586B pin-out chosen, but that's nothing to get upset about IMHO;
Pin 1 is stressed and slightly bent, but can probably still make decent contact;
Finally the ethernet cable is too short for practical use and is missing a second termination jack end.
But this is likely because OP cut off the end to re-terminate the longer cable.

There is something odd about the damage to the pins, a bit like they were crimped with a screwdriver. they all seems to have a dent in them.

Good catch. Probably didn't have a crimper.
