I think slabbing is fine if it does not impact the value. Cards are still worth what someone else is willing to pay so I never consider paying more for a graded card and often times I don't agree with the grade. I recently discovered I can let my two year old play with them before I bust them out which is a positive. If I did believe in leaving them in the holder then I would collect SGC over PSA for eye appeal.

Opening is easy with my handy dandy letter opener. Two turns and a pop and the cards free without damage. I haven't damaged any of the 100 or so I've busted out over the years.
