So I've thought about this a lot and I think the way you would see change the quickest is, in a loose sense, akin to how PSA got started (Bear with me!)

Some multi-millionaire who has a complete T206 set gets the entire set microscopically examined and recorded, replacing any with issues. He then does a set break with, let's say, REA. The winner not only gets the cards (in some form of slab) but the digital images of the scans and whatever other pertinent information that is generated.

I think the press would be huge and the 800lb gorillas who have been going after PSA 8's would trample each other to get the first scientifically examined unaltered T206 cards.

Instead of just the Wagner this new company would have a complete set going up for auction with a great auction house and set the collecting world on it's ear.
