I would have to assume a "cleaning" up of the hobby would result in a dramatic change of the existing landscape...people doing jail time...paying heavy fines...potentially a change in the existing grading companies...maybe bring new players in all categories.

I just don't see all of that happening - it took the biggest card in the hobby to get Mastro, and the results of that aren't going to clean up things across the board.

A lot more people would have to go down to significantly affect change like you describe above, and that is going to be very hard to prove IMO.
