barrysloateHow about I rephrase what I said:
Grading is in theory objective, but the standards are far too loose for my satisfaction.
And with regard to eye appeal: suppose you had two Old Judges with exactly the same amount of wear, and one had a blurry photo and the other was crystal clear. Do you think the cards should receive identical grades, or would you prefer to see the one with the perfect photo receive a one grade bump over its counterpart?
