That is weird.

When I use my own NSes under my own domain, I need to reg them to .org
NSes, when I use my registrars NSes I don't.

There does not seem to be any technical reason for your scenario (imho).

P.S.: A direct glue of course could reduce the lookup path length and save
resources.

Greetings,

given my domain name is example.net, and my NS servers for example.net
are:

ns1.example.com
ns2.example.com

But, example.com itself's NS servers are the registrator's (for
example, godaddy's).

Under this case, I don't need any glue for ns[1-2].example.com.
But why I still need to register them in the .com NS servers?

Thanks.

When using someone's name servers, it is THEIR responsibility to make sure proper glue records are generated. When it's your name servers, you are required to register them.

My domain is lcrcomputer.com. if I use ns1 and ns2.lcrcomputer.com as my name servers and do not have glue records for them in the .com root servers, how is anyone going to find the name servers for my domain?

But in the example given, whoever owns example.com needs to create the glue records by registering ns1 and ns2.example.com as name servers. And if the owner of example.net does not make sure the name servers they want to use are not registered, then they should not be wondering why others will have trouble resolving example.net.
