Thoughts on this idealscope for diamond studs?

[surferla]

It has been really hard to search for a good set of earrings where both stones had great cuts, but this was the best I could find at a reasonable price. What are your thoughts?

Not a fan of the one on the left it shows signs of wide ranging pavilion angles and twisted lowers.

The one on the left is the one Im iffy about but not sure I can find something better to match

Yea they cut them so the averages looks good on the report and tools that use those numbers but the numbers in the average are wide ranging then twist the lowers to save the EX symmetry grade.
GIA rounds each main facets angle then averages them then grossly rounds them.
What happens if they are cut with wide ranging angles so the number on the report holds little relationship to what is actually on the diamond once GIA gets done messing with them.
