If SGC is seen as a reputable grader now, why should those cards already graded be looked upon as substandard? What really changes about the card? Nothing. I don't think they should be considered substandard. The card is still the card. We all know we can find over/under-graded cards in both slabs, old and new. SGC would not be going away because of a default in their grading or some kind of a scandal. So, should SGC cards be looked at differently? I think not. I will still continue to buy the card and not the grade. If that card happens to be in a SGC holder, I'm OK with that. Seems like it might be a little premature to panic. Who knows what the future folds. It will be interesting to see.
I don't know either obviously, but my concern is that eventually, after tons of cards are crossed over as will be inevitable once the holder is discontinued, people will assume an SGC card either would not cross at the grade or would not cross at all. So people wanting to sell will be forced to try to cross, and to suffer devaluation if they don't or can't.
