I know what you are saying, this is very common with vintage cards. The front is 80/20 one way, but the back somehow is perfectly centered? I don’t think PSA accounts for this. Yes, it is a misprint, and as a necessary byproduct of removing the card from a full sheet, it is going to be either OC or MC depending on how severe the issue is. Honestly I would kind of agree with them that it’s wise not to make it more complicated with the qualifier. Technically that would be a “misaligned” sheet. It would do nothing but confuse collectors who already are often woefully misinformed on the specifics behind even the centering qualifier - even more.
