Would you like to see more detail in details grading?

Anyone think there would be value in expanding what is seen on a details label for PCGS and NGC? I recently ran across an old Heritage lot with some commemoratives that were cleaned but still called PL by NCS (precursor to NGC details grading). Anacs also tends to be more descriptive on their details labels; they add a number (although they stop at 60) and tend to write multiple issues if it’s warranted.

One almost never sees a "prooflike" designation applied to a "details only" coin. That's pretty sweet!

2005 Lincoln Memorial Cent error, AU details, corroded plating, zinc rot, run over in a parking lot at least eight times.
I never saw one before finding that lot on HA (sold back in 2009) while researching something else recently.
I think it is absurd. Is the reflectivity from truly PL fields or is it a result of polishing/cleaning? The label creates more questions than it answers.
It's probably PL but heavily hairlined. Otherwise, NGC would have said "POLISHED" rather than "IMPROPERLY CLEANED". I'm sure they know the difference.

The TPG could have a subset of numbers for 'details'... i.e. Details XX - with a list available on the website. I know from history here, many who received details coins would like more explanation. Cheers, RickO
It would be really helpful to know why. Especially when you see so many crackout games end in a straight grade follow up.
I have two that just came back cleaned I will be playing the game with from pcgs.
I would like to know exactly where the tooling is on the 1878 Morgan.
