Default Card fingerprint?

Question for those of you who know more than me (which is a low bar!). Do cards have unique "fingerprints?" I am thinking about the recent post of the trimmed WWG Joe DiMaggio, where the poster highlighted all of the various print defects, card stock variances, etc.

If these are truly unique, wouldn't TPGs be able to match a newly submitted card to ones they have already scanned? This might at least slow down some of the crack, trim and resubs...

I realize this might not work on some of the modern cards but would this work on vintage?
