Had this been the method of the original classification I speculate that the tougher brands (Uzit, Drum, Lenox, etc.) would not have had such a large associated premium. While they probably would still go for high dollar, they wouldn't be $1000+ commons--I feel collectors would have paid less attention to them on the whole.

Within the "sets" themselves, series and factory #'s would have become much more important...and thus provided us with "new" hobby gems. For example a Sweet Caporal Master set would be born in which much more attention would be brought to Factory #25 an overprints, etc, etc, etc.
