Very insightful and thought provoking post.

My collection has always focused on (relative) low cost entry as I’m a prudent budget hawk. That might change in retirement, but I’ve always believed for my PC, a card should ultimately cost (trading up to it) no more than the $0.05 pack it originally came in. I’ve had one single card and collecting goal since I was 11, so is a definitive and hyper focused collection pinnacle. That is a legacy card for my heirs.

For me Baseball in particular encapsulates my youth playing catch with and being coached by my Dad, a reminder of better and brighter times ahead after cold and dark winters, leverages critical thinking and employs statistics, and is a way to bring people together (which the collecting hobby greatly satisfies).
