Equally obviously, many of us have NOT been on the trade train and haven't traded away such decks. I have the Gorgons, and I can and do shuffle it. It is rather large, but the detail ls fantastic at that size.
Sure lots of people trim and post about it. Those of us who don't don't post about not doing because - what's to say ? I have posted in this thread about the two decks I have trimmed - Pink because the artist bit was vile, and one of my Thoths for a specific Thothy reason.
People often trim simply because they don't like the borders, not primarily to make cards smaller.
And NO, Lo Scarabeo decks are only standard FOR THEM - and even then, only for most of their decks. Please don't try and force all decks into their mould. You don't own a Llewellyn ? They are larger than LoS. You refuse all Schiffers ? Connections ?
You want us to believe that Lo Scarabeo have set an industry standard - but it simply isn't true.
It is true. Look at print shops that print standard tarot size decks and they will be 2.5 x 4.5 inches.
