You are likely right F&I. I was being contrary just to give the opposite viewpoint from the 'overkill' comments.
I also assumed that the poster knows that she is paying a roughly 75% premium to go from an SI stone to an IF with the same color. Maybe she didn't realize how big the hit really is. Maybe she didn't realize how far down the line you can go and still be eye clean. Maybe she didn't know that there are some great PS vendors and appraisers out there who can be her eyes and do the looking for her.

I thought it was clear from the posters comments that she thought that IF is the only way to guarentee that she gets something eye clean. At least this is how I interpreted it. Obviously, IF or even VVS would be overkill for this purpose.
