Does PSA still give Qual OC grades??

I thought I read that they no longer do. Is that correct? I have a few Mint OC stars that I would not like to have in 4-6 cases but rather the OC or MC grade. Is that still an option?
Just saw some fresh grades with OC quals like this one.

So do they still give OC grades or is this a cert after the decision?

I received an 8OC on a 1961 Fleer Basketball card just last week. I was surprised to see a qualifier after the announcement from a few months back.
I remember reading their new policy and my takeaway was that it was at the discretion of the grader. The example they gave was a 9 slightly vs really bad OC. The slight would get a straight 7 or 8. The really bad OC would get a 9 (OC) instead of knocking it down to a 4 or 5.
PSA is certainly still including qualifiers when grading, if the card's grade necessitates it. PSA no longer requires customers to specify a request for No Qualifiers on the sub form. Qualifiers continue to be applied where appropriate.
