Well, I disagree.

I care BIG TIME about the population reports.

This hobby is moving because the advent of the population reports.

Technology has given us, not only a platform to trade on(actually multiple), but a source of data analytics. Real Data is now available. Data never known until given to us since the pop reports were A. Created, and B. Made public.

Data is now what is driving the move.

Your last statement kinda sums up your lack of understanding...... It’s not the prior century anymore, times have changed. You will either move forward or be left behind. Best of Luck

Rare backs and finding cards that are rarely seen with certain backs are totally different animals. Lenox is generally rare and yes, generally collected. But a common with an Old Mill back isn't. Unless the registry is involved, I guess. Don't think it's apples to apples or a reason why one can't live without the other, when for most of the hobby's history there was no registry or pop count.
