Very interesting comparison. I would have guessed the center card, and if not the center card, the card on the right. Shows what I know.
I really enjoy looking at friends' low-population for the grade PSA 10s. Most of the time they do set themselves apart from PSA 9s. That said, there's a reason I only own a half dozen or so graded cards, and it's because of the difficulty of rationalizing the huge (huge) jumps in price for very small condition upgrades.
For graded cards, my general rule is that they are limited to (1) sentimental cards (e.g., my BGS 10 1983 Tony Gwynn RC - a bazillion printed) and (2) extremely low total population cards (e.g., 1973 Dean's Photo Dave Winfield).
