Is 1986 fleer Michael Jordan rookie card being under graded by PSA on purpose?

The reason I ask is because I've noticed a lot of PSA 8's that look like 9's, it seems they are stricter on grading his card than any other player in the set to keep population down.

There are 27,001 cards graded and only 3,060 PSA 9's that just seems odd.

There are only 333 PSA 10's.

I know Any card that is multiplies of 11. ie....... 11, 22, 33, 44, 55, 66, 77, 88, 99, 110, 121, 132. , As there is the rule of 11 in which cards that are multiples of 11 in this set are generally condition sensitive and will often command a significant premium over the normal values you would expect for that player card.

Michael Jordan's rookie doesn't seem to be one of those listed.
