Please enlighten me. I like the 2021 Heritage set and was considering the 1972 set as a companion. What sort of landmines do I need to be aware of before venturing into this set?

In a word, centering.

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.

787 cards (largest set of the Seventies) with a full run of semi-hi and hi cards. Some cards have graphics that are not quite rectangular so pretty much no such thing as a centered card even without the miscuts. Then there are the miscuts. Killebrew and Aaron IA spring to mind. Most people just capitulate and keep one that isn't too badly o/c.
