Well, I’m not convinced that the slab does much for the centering, so moving it from one slab to the next shouldn’t impact whether the centering premium applies, or to what extent it should apply.

And as an added damning fact, this piece is in such rough shape that I don’t understand why someone would pay a premium for the centering. Just seems like you’re focused on the wrong stuff if you’re paying an elevated price for a card in really rough shape that happens to be moderately well centered.
