Matt, I just have a different way of viewing the cards, is all. I didn't have much interest in reopening the conversation, but when the OP posted ridiculing the SGC flip, things just went in that direction with Andy, mainly because the whole reason behind the grading companies putting 1887 on everything is that they see no incentive to get the year correct since it doesn't conflict with the system of identifying each card by pose and neglecting year and type.
