Default Safeway "Rancher's Reserve"

Anyone else figure out that this much touted, supposedly superior, "grade"
of beef has been quietly downgraded from USDA Choice to USDA Select, at
least for some cuts? I found out when I bought a whole rib roast which was
still in the cryovac wrap from the packing house and was identified as
Select. Never would have known had they cut it up and put it in the display
case.
