Default Help with PSA grading 1959 Bazooka's with tab

Hi Guys:

I recently picked up some 1959 Bazooka cards that have the tab at the bottom. See a few below

I am not a graded collector, but since these have the dotted lines all the way around I thought they may grade well and was thinking about submitting them. But then I read on their site:

n order for PSA to actually assign a grade to any of the cards that possess visible/defined borders on all four sides, evidence of that border must be present. If the cut exceeds the visible border for the card in question, PSA will encapsulate the card as "Authentic" only.

Then they go on to say:

PSA suggests that, in order to achieve the highest grades, the cuts of the cards should be relatively close to the visible borders without exceeding the limit.

So my questions are

how much EXCEEDS the border limit? Do they tell you say example 1/64 of an inch etc. or do they leave it vague and you have to submit in order to find out?

Will these cards be graded "authentic" because of this?

Should I submit at all? I don't want just authentic especially with all the dotted lines and the tab on the bottom.

Any insights appreciated

Would appreciate if someone can "turn" the cards right side up
