I dont think there is any inconsistency - I think the people who have no problem with hand erasing are the same ones who have no problem with the fact that this card now resides in an sgc 80 slab.
Tbob,
I think SGC just doesnt like you very much - they seem to always want to reject your cards for things that the rest of us get graded (i.e. trimmed but authentic slabs; erased markes, etc). For example, I just sold this card, but its the most obvious erase job in the world (not done by me though) and yet it graded no problem (though it did get an appropriately low grade):
