I see both sides, I see BGS side as far as concerned they could be accused of scratching the surface of a card, but those concerns should not be considerably more than edges and corners.
The other side would be that they could give higher grades if they wiped the card surface and when did giving an extra .5-1 on a grade hurt the customer approval???
i honestly didnt think to clean the surface of the card....like you i thought they would clean it or not count fingerprints against the grade....
lesson learned
