I could not agree more with this sentiment. Fixation on some third party's subjective opinion of numerical grade turns me way off.

And your analogy is so SPOT ON; it really resonates with me as a screenwriter as well. Just as box office doesn't mean one movie is better than another, so it goes with some TPG grade. It's all in the collector's eye.
