Too many questions for this early in the morning.....I enjoy collecting all of the options that you noted above, including print shifts.
I also like to understand what the cause of the difference is on each card like this that I come across....some are caused by print shifts, some are true variations, some are random ink marks, some are missing colors, etc .
To me, the cause of the difference does not make a card any more or less desirable, if the difference appeals to me, I'll collect it.
