I noticed this big time at the Natty where a good 75% of all modern cards I saw were BGS vs. PSA.

Go compare Trout rookies or anything else you want on ebay, then report back. PSA 10s sell at a substantial advantage to BGS 9.5s. I don't know the market for one off weird basketball inserts and the like so if you're talking about that or autographs, fine, you could be right, but on your basic superstar rookies and variations, PSA is winning from what I see.
PS from what I know guys buy 9.5s (quads mostly) to try to cross them to PSA 10s. Not the other way around.
