Dan, I had this "debate" with Admin. It's no secret that I'm not a fan of listing items twice, regardless of format. A card is a card, whether it's an individual card or in a 4-, 6-, 8-, or 9-card panel. My thinking is if you have the 4-card panel, you have 4 cards. Doesn't matter if they are attached to each other or not - to me.
However, it seems the majority of the hobby doesn't agree with my opinion on these items. Therefore, TCDB will list the panels, if that's how they were issued (we still don't list full uncut sheets). And even though I may not agree with the concept or practice, I have helped add several of the panel sets as they were requested (I have some nice excel formulas that help make the checklists in a couple minutes without the need to re-type the whole thing).
Oh, and the "debates" with Admin were very cordial and respectful from both sides. :)
