Default 33 Goudey and Trimming?

For whatever reason I've always struggled with 33 Goudey's and determining if they have the correct sizing. I recently bought a few that I would like to grade but some of the edges are a bit off (little pushes and inconsistencies here and there) and I don't know if it's because they are just nicer than I usually handle or if there is something amiss. I hate being paranoid so was hoping for a few opinions. Thanks in advance.

The left edge of the Goslin, and maybe the top seem a bit off. Measures almost exactly right (a tad wider LR and a tad shorter TB). If you put it on a flat surface a bit of light shines through when laid on the left side, indicating the corners stick out a bit (looks a bit more noticeable in person - took a pic of the other side to show my table is flat).

The Joe Kuhel top edge concerns me - measures a tad over 2 3/8" LR and and maybe a bit more than 1/32" short of 2 7/8" TB.

The right edge of the Combs is a bit fuzzy. Additionally, where I can see the 3 layers of the card when I look at the side of the other two cards, this is much harder to discern the layers, i.e. the side looks fairly homogenous (ink pattern looks right under a microscope though). Measures right on.
