 For me it's practices like this that make PSA a shameful money grab
 and undermine the credibility of TPG.  Just accept a lower grade and
 you can make an entire attribute of a card go away.  Total nonsense.
 
 My favorite LCS stlll refuses to deal with graded cards, and he continues
 on as if the whole thing never happened. I see his viewpoint sometimes
 and an issue like this is one of the reasons.

 I don't understand how that is shameful.  It's not difference than saying that a card would be an 8 except for that one corner ding, instead I got a 6.  By giving qualifiers on certain cards, they are actually trying to do the customer a favor by saying in this instance we'll rate it higher with an asterisk.  
If they didn't offer qualifiers, then an OC card that qualifies for a max 6 grade would be a 6 period, regardless of how nice it is otherwise.  Just like a perfect card with one bad corner.
