Well, yes and no. No one expects perfection and errors like the Ripken or 'Alomar' are just errors. But misidentifying cards completely, misidentifying sets, refusing to accept new research, that's just negligence or arrogance. For years, PSA refused to acknowledge the existence of a T220 Silver Border Donovan. Joe O's rationale: we haven't graded one so if we add it to the checklist no one will be able to complete a PSA-graded set. Yeah, that made sense. Ignore the facts you don't like.
They don't have to be perfect, but they do have to try.
