Nothing has really changed here for 20 years. They have been the fiscal favorite for decades and it is very unlikely to change without some paradigm breaking event.

Agreed. And given that all the revelations of the last few years have not changed the paradigm one iota, it is difficult to see what could.

Maybe a simultaneous implosion of all of the TPGs, sort of like GAI or another now defunct TPG?

Of course, someone else would probably set up shop and pick right back up where they left off.

But now I’m seeing on a lot of card collecting sites and hobby chatter that fake graded cards are becoming a major problem nowadays.
