There are far more blank backs, misprints, cutouts and scraps that proofs out there, and sometimes it's impossible to tell the difference between a proof and a blank back or a scrap. So when in doubt I assume a funky card isn't a proof.
I had a bank back Topps I pulled from a wax pack and a blank back proof directly from Topps. If I showed them to you and didn't tell you where they came from, you'd have no clue which if either or both was the proof . . . Though I've also had proofs that clearly were proofs just looking at them.
