interesting premise. you may be right, but I think your method of collecting data is flawed:

"Dont believe me? Start charting the sales of some of the most expensive cards in the hobby through auctions. They will resurface about every 5-6 years in general at the latest either in auctions or through private sales (with some exceptions)."

There may be a high turnover of cards, but that turnover rate may be just as high as lower grade cards. Because it is tougher to track lower grade cards, it would be impossible to compare the turnover rates.

But I still think your premise is interesting...and I'm not arguing it isn't true...just saying the data collection method has a comparison problem as far as turnover rates relative to other cards.
