+1 on that, sir.

I had lots of cards from my childhood that should be graded "Authentic - Evidence Of Being Thrown Very Hard Into A Wall During A Game Of Knockdowns"

Hell, I might even pay extra for that notation.

Would you be happier with "Evidence of Tearing?". Or maybe "Evidence of Biting?"

I run into this issue often with hand cut Japanese menko. In my mind, “trimming” should have been done with an end goal in mind of trying to make a card look better. With menko, it often looks like a card was cut out by a kid whose scissor skills are lacking. (Which was often true). So in my mind, “trimming” isn’t the right term, but it often gets put on the slab.

That would be the elusive RN (rat nibble) designation.
