Physical grading and market price are still too loosely connected

Recently I have been discussing relationship between physical grading and market price with several coffee people and nobody gives the same answer. Some treat it as small detail, some say it changes the whole workflow. I am not looking for textbook reply. I want to know whether relationship between physical grading and market price gives meaningful difference once you repeat it over many cycles.

Would you keep relationship between physical grading and market price in your normal process, or only for specific coffees and situations?

From my side this helped only on certain coffees, not on every lot. When the coffee is already forgiving, relationship between physical grading and market price does not change much. On difficult lots the effect is clearer.

I disagree a little with people who say relationship between physical grading and market price is only a small detail. Small detail alone maybe yes, but several small details together can move the cup a lot.
