You rarely, if ever, see a wavy factory cut on a T206. Maybe you do on some of the 50's-70's cards, but almost never on a T206. But yes, definitely trimmed (even if it does measure correctly).

It's starting to sound like I've got a $10k card on my hands

I think it's NOT trimmed. Take a look at all four edges and see if they all have the same color and striations. If one of them is bright white, that's a good tell that it was trimmed. Based on the borders I can see in the scan, I am guessing all four edges would look similarly cut and worn.

It indeed appears trimmed; sticks out like a sore thumb.

Except for the back being so off center it's a slam dunk for a trim job. I still don't see how that top right corner could be so sharp given the other corners wear. So I will agree with the others.
