It'll be interesting to see how it works overall. What happens if the seller advertised the card as NrMt and it came back ALT (trimming). Does PSA slab it, send it to back to fleabay which would then have to invalidate the auction because PSA did not agree with the grade the seller advertised it as...

The article says that cards will be graded after they pass the authentication process which is supposed to be verifying the description was accurate including if the seller indicated the correct condition. It will be interesting to see if that really results in cards getting the grade sellers listed them as because if not, they shouldn't authenticate.
