The video confirmed what we knew all along. Grading is an opinion with technical aspects. It is also very subjective from one grader to the next. Graders do not spend a lot of time grading each card. And grading criteria can change over time, meaning cards graded long ago may not grade the same if submitted today. With all the dollars involved in grading, grading has become more scrutinized, but in the end, trust your eyes and experience. Because even the same card, graded at the same grading company, can achieve wildly different results.

Apologies but my firewall blocks youtube videos that feature those who make idiotic thumbnail faces

BTW I'm not alone in that regard; https://www.google.com/search?q=stupid+faces+youttube&sca_esv=016f34706b28a015&ei=WeudabvQFYad0PEPw7XX6QU&biw=1792&bih=890&ved=0ahUKEwj74JDD3vKSAxWGDjQIHcPaNV0Q4dUDCBE&uact=5&oq=stupid+faces+youttube&gs_lp=Egxnd3Mtd2l6LXNlcnAiFXN0dXBpZCBmYWNlcyB5b3V0dHViZTIGEAAYFhgeMggQABgIGA0YHjILEAAYgAQYhgMYigUyCxAAGIAEGIYDGIoFMgsQABiABBiGAxiKBUiQOVDLEVicOHACeAGQAQCYAWKgAeUKqgECMjG4AQPIAQD4AQL4AQGYAhegAtgLwgIKEAAYsAMY1gQYR8ICDRAAGIAEGLADGEMYigXCAgoQABiABBhDGIoFwgIKEC4YgAQYQxiKBcICDhAuGIAEGMcBGI4FGK8BwgIOEC4YgAQYsQMY0QMYxwHCAgsQABiABBixAxiDAcICDRAAGIAEGLEDGEMYigXCAggQABiABBixA8ICBRAAGIAEwgIEEAAYA8ICBRAuGIAEwgIUEC4YgAQYlwUY3AQY3gQY4ATYAQHCAggQABiABBiiBMICCBAAGKIEGIkFmAMAiAYBkAYKugYGCAEQARgUkgcEMjIuMaAHnI8BsgcEMjAuMbgHzwvCBwgwLjUuMTcuMcgHWYAIAA&sclient=gws-wiz-serp

To stay off topic, they do the same thing in movies, tv shows, and live entertainment shows too. It's annoyed me for a very long time, and now I will be laser-focused on idiot YouTubers doing the same thing with their thumbnails. lol
