Does PCGS ever remove debris from coins when they reholder?

Just curious about this. Sometimes PCGS slabbed coins have fairly obvious debris, whether that be lint, a hair, a piece of crud, whatever, that is not embedded into the coin, like a carbon spot or toning. Do the graders ever take the liberty of re(safely) moving the particle(s) before they reholder a coin that has been regraded (or even just reholdered)?

Actually, I find it to be disturbing & GROSS and if left in contact with a coin's surfaces this debris can and will cause very unpleasant results.
