I wonder why you believe that.

Yes, of course.  The only question is: how the format affects the opinion
of the judges and to what direction and why.

Personally, I wish the stereo cards were given their own space to 
develop, with their own "juding of the stereo card of the year", their
own "stereo card hall of fame", their own competitions and star
ratings in PSA.  Just like the stereo slides were given when the
system was introduced in the early '50s.  I think it works better
that way.
