wonders never cease.
But I think I'll wait until they come out with the "Superb Plus" grades.

Software geeks and coin geeks rarely collide in the same person.
Software developement must really be cheaper than "they" let on, I
find it hard to believe that anybody has ever made a profit selling
"collection management" software to real coin collectors.
I revel in my coin accumulation's disorganization.

I stand before you the exception to the rule: 33-year coin geek, 30-
year software geek.
Problem is, the time I spend on one is lost from the other: mostly the
coins win.
I house my data in Google docs until such time as I can carve out some
block of my
life to design "the right system" (another stumbling block to any
software/hobby cross-breed).

Well, it's nice that the coins have some "edge" in your particular
case, anyway.
My theory is if it's good to have one of something, why not have more
than one???
Lacking any records, I can easily end up with multiples (even dozens)
of many items.

The people I've gotten to know well who collect gravitate much more to
the numismatist side than the accumulator side, so I don't know much
about this approach of accumulating that you do. Are you like those
hoarders documented in the media who just pile stuff up all over the
place, forcing you go move material for instance in order to use the
bathroom? Is is the act of acquiring that does it for you -- the thrill
of the hunt -- or does it give you comfort to have masses of material
around, including as you say dozens of copies of the same items, like a
squirrel stashes away acorns for the winter?
The collectors I know, and I'm the same way, are the opposite. The act
of bringing organization to what you acquire increases both knowledge
and enjoyment. You have to think before you buy, and buying then becomes
more fun. There can be creativity in the process as well. Sure, you can
just fill a Whitman folder or collect Red Book varieties, but you can
also create sets or minisets of your own devising and thus bring
together specific coins that in their grouping have particular meaning
for you. Being organized in what you have gives you more direction in
what you look for. Instead of just piling on more of the same, you look
to fill specific holes. You're also more motivated to learn about what
you have and what you want, to acquire contextual knowledge about
history, mythology, metallurgy, mining, and so on. Finally, when
collecting in an organized rather than haphazard way, how you label and
store your coins, and present them to others, takes on added importance.
But as with any hobby, it's really a matter of to each his/her own.
There's no right way. There's just a way, at one extreme, infused with
thought and intelligence and, at the other extreme, another way that
reeks of anal-compulsive weirdness.

FWIW, my rather extensive numismatic library is also rather
disorganized. Que sera sera, baby.
I'll bet you roll your turds into small balls, kinda like Napoleon
Bonaparte did. Rolling your turds into small balls makes you an
immortal, just like Nappy!!!
Like I told a neatness freak bitch who was my boss many years back
(and I long outlasted her in the bank examiners' organization, BTW)
"Just because you don't know where it is, doesn't mean that I don't
know where it is!".
Besides, whenever I come across that elusive small bank zip-bag filled
with a dozen nice, hand-chosen ecus of Louis XVI (most of the dated
1786-L), it gives me a great unexpected pleasure!
