Perhaps true. But if the valuation of those cards take a (big) hit, do you think they will still not care? And what about low to mid grade cards, whose owners as a group likely are less concerned about their registry points? They likely will care a lot if the market values their cards less because of the uncertainty of alteration.
If a new grading system comes into being using the most current technology, and exposes a significant number of graded cards to be altered, I think cards graded under the old method will loose a lot of value until regraded.
