VS1 ? Perhaps if graining is the only inclusion, but even then... Sure it's not dust or some other of the sort? If you can pick it up easily at 10X, than whatever that is should be mentioned on the cert, I would think. Graining would be mentioned as a comment rather than marked on the clarity plot by GIA.

Quite the contrary, I'd say, because they do not show as much as others. This is why pictures are hard to take and I know of none online! Just my 0.2, of course.
