It's not anal retentive to point out that a card with two holes in it doesn't
grade Excellent. Just as it isn't splitting hairs to point out that a man with
two holes in his head probably isn't napping.

I understand non-collectors might call a worn card 'great' or 'swell.' However, considering
the volume of baseball cards this seller sells, I assume he knows the card grading
scale and knows that a baseball card with two holes doesn't grade Excellent. It's
apparent he wasn't using the word informally ("Hughie was a most excellent dude.")
