Default Grading Question

I stumbled across this beauty on ebay...and obviously a little out of the range of the set I am putting together, lol. I rarely buy graded cards, and have made no secret I pop and set free most (I do collect some hi-grades for personal reason). This card, albeit an amazing card, is a PSA 10 and I don't get it. Is the back not diamond cut and a little OC? If I dropped $40K on a card solely because it has a high grade, at a 10 wouldn't it be fair to expect perfection? The price jump is 20 to 40x's a going rate based solely on the grade.

I am either blind or confused...










With the old adage, buy the card not the holder (something I definitely follow), this card can be called a 10 all day long but I hardly doubt this will sell?
