I want to clarify that I'm not calling CGC "liars", simply that I don't think that anyone can reliably claim to detect or rule out trimming when done well. I think in some cases, there are probably tell-tale signs, but I'm sure there are probably just as many cases with no signs. Therefore a CGC "OK" doesn't mean it's not trimmed. Nor would an OK from anyone else.
CGC aren`t perfect!
Maybe some of us had never ascribed this omnipotence to CGC that you seemed to have. They`re not perfect, but they`re better than any other commercially reasonable alternative that I have seen so far.
