If a new grading system comes into being using the most current technology, and exposes a significant number of graded cards to be altered, I think cards graded under the old method will loose a lot of value until regraded.
There's a bit of circularity though. If I am right that much of the big money doesn't care about alteration, why would values take a big hit?
