If the answer is no, then you understand the point I am trying to make.
In that case it was probably just the grader being sloppy. They could have printed out the "A" flip while not slabbing instead of saying it was trimmed, which would have been more accurate. Unlike PSA, SGC does not differentiate between A and AA. They don't have to tell you why the card didn't get a number grade, though in this case it's pretty obvious.
