I agree that at the highest level, the number rules, because in the world of set registry the prestige of one's set is based entirely on a cumulative average, and that is totally objective. A set that grades 8.32 is always better than one that grades 8.28, without exception.

Hopefully collectors at the lower end of the grading scale do look at cards more closely, and see the grade on the label as just an expressed opinion. That would be a good thing.
