I agree with you. I was just making the other sides argument.

. Also, because I see so many of the cards that are only cleaned it is a little worrisome they will wear red hats when many of them shouldn't be.

Imperfect world, there are always slippery slope arguments like you're making, and one can almost always identify a case where a law or rule doesn't make sense, but you have to be practical.
Anyhow, there are obviously major things being done to these cards that the vast majority of the hobby would deem unacceptable. Therefore, it's fraud not to disclose them. The fact that there is no perfect consensus in the hobby is a red herring. Intentional misrepresentation or concealment of a material fact. Fraud 101.
