Might they miss something, sure. Does it invalidate their examination? No.
Can't disagree with this. I just think people need a realistic expectation of what certification means. Certification of issues such as color touch, tear seal, etc is a lot more of a certitude than trimming. Do I think CGC does everything within its power to identify trimmed books? Absolutely. I just don't have tremendous amount of confidence that detecting subtle trimming with a high degree of accuracy is within anyone's power. Maybe I am wrong.
