I really think a very plausible explanation for at least some of the votes is that the wording is open for interpretation. As others have noted, most people if given a choice would prefer to have his/her cards be in as good a condition as possible. However, that is quite different from having the funds to do so, or indeed if the cards a person collects as a practical matter even exist in such grade. Perhaps a better wording would be words to the effect "Given the funds you have to spend on baseball cards and the condition availability of the cards that are the focus of your collecting interests, what is the typical condition of a card you are likely to add to your collection?"
