I have several locks that cannot be cut that way...the shackle is not exposed.
Fear not. Cutting through the various shrouds and casings on these locks takes very little time with a Dremel tool + carbon fiber blade. When that is not convenient, the cable or hasp attached to the lock can usually be cut.
Locking hitch pins are exposed and softer than even modestly priced padlocks. They remain about the easiest locks to compromise in my limited experience. Even a Sawzall with hacksaw blade cuts them in a few seconds. A hacksaw can barely scratch a good padlock.
