What I would hope for is that they become a little more objective in how they grade. Take some of that subjectivity and market manipulation out of the process. Recognize that heavily-scrutinized brand new cards are coming in a a higher than 70% gem rate. Modern cards are not that far behind. Average Joe should get the same look as 4SC and so on.
The objectivity is what companies like Tag offer (visibility into that objective process is of course needed), especially since their grading process is automated and all defects are recorded and shown to you on an individual report

The issue is overcoming the massive deficit they have in market share and brand perception since their slabs sell for less than PSA ones

As it stands now PSA has no reason to improve the service they offer because people just keep submitting cards anyway as a PSA slab provides the greatest potential return based on the grade you get
