Default How trimmed can a card be and still be graded Near Mint?

I have refrained from posting this type of thread in the past, but I collect E220 National Caramel cards and it struck me as so, so wrong. The cuts on E220 cards are about the worse I have seen on a non-strip issue (which makes you wonder if maybe the set was partially produced in strip form or as a sheet...see scan below for an idea of their sloppy production). It is therefore sometimes difficult to determine what a normal full size card is, but this example has narrow borders on all four sides and it grades as Near Mint? A little card knowledge goes a long way, TPG folks.
