Peter, if within the hobby it is generally believed that B's cards sell for more than comparably graded A cards, and the reason has nothing to do with grading quality but instead B's set registry, A could rationally take the view that there is no improvement it could make to its product that could increase its market share. And therefore the most prudent business strategy would be to expose the great percentage of high-grade B vintage cards that in fact are altered, along with the blatant misrepresentations B is making by telling submitters how accurate its grading is and the ethical standards under which it operates. Maybe in the end such a suit would bring no benefit to A. But the upside of bringing it to me seems to outweigh the downside.
