As for the portion highlighted in bold... I believe you nailed it. Very insightful perspective. It is the starry-eyed collectors that are largely perpetuating this nonsense. And Orlando's Letter clearly shows his level of respect (or lack there of) for his loyal cult of followers.
Here's what bothers me:

I'm guessing most PSA subs are done by people intending to sell the cards. We know people who want to sell cards will continue to submit them as long as there's more money doing that than selling them another way, raw or in another TPG slab. So, in order for PSA to lose business and feel the crunch, PSA slabbed cards will need to be fetching crappy prices for those trying to sell them.

Ugh. What about all the honest people out there? Does every PSA card have to lose value in order for reform to happen? That sucks.

I'm sure I'm way behind most people here in thinking this through. I'm kinda slow, admittedly. But every time I see this story in print, it feels like a gut punch.
