Default American Beauty Borders Theory

Im just a new collector, so forgive me if im stating the obvious. I just got in the mail today an AB460 and was looking at it alongside my AB350 w/frame. I have decided that AB most likely dropped the frame idea when it realized that it was actually cutting into the frame to make the cards slender enough to fit into their packs. I have a lower grade AB350 w/frame in which the entire left side of the frame is gone. I can only imagine the thoughts of the guy assigned to quality control back then, looking at these new cards which appeared to be mutilated. Since there are no framed 460's, it stands to reason that the frame idea was dropped perhaps halfway through the 350 series to give the cards a better appearance. Thoughts? Comments?
