cmokingCharlie, you are dealing in semantics. The fact is that your opinion of alteration/restoration is different than PSA and SGC's opinion. This means if/when a card is altered, even on the level-one that Dave Forman described, the card alterer/submitter is basically trying to fool PSA and SGC by getting it past them. Again, you may disagree with their opinion, and you may be completely right to disagree. But the submitter is trying to fool them. That's not a good thing IMO.
