It could be argued that grading reprints helps the TPG survive, and that by them surviving, it helps the hobby. Also the fact they are labeled as reprints means that anyone buying one won't be remotely fooled (not that they would be but this is safer than not being labeled reprints)

I think anyone getting one graded is kind of silly but that is just my opinion.
