Very surprised by some of the grades, also 3 of my cards have botched pictures.

Whole back of the card didn't get pictured: https://www.cgccards.com/certlookup/1401011340009/
A hand blocking the back of this card: https://www.cgccards.com/certlookup/1401011340003/

Not necessarily. If a company drastically increases revenue while drastically increasing grading volume (what we are seeing now), they could grow their operations to mitigate the increase in turnaround time to try and keep it around the low number that their customers enjoyed. If they do not do that, then it would be quite reasonable to say that they have "discontinued" those lower turnaround times.

It wouldn't be reasonable to say that shorter turnaround times are "discontinued" as a product that is discontinued is permanently not being produced.  Turn around times are not a product or service to be discontinued.  It is an estimation of completion to provide a product or service.  Estimations can change constantly overtime by a variety of variables, while discontinuing something is not variable, it is static and consistent forever.  This is why they will never say anything along the lines of "short turn around times are discontinued", but instead it would be nice if they communicated that turn around times will be longer due to such and such variable.

Economy submission delivered 8/9, received 8/10, moved to grading 8/28. Hopefully will ship 9/5.

Bulk submission delivered 8/17, marked as received 8/22, has not been checked in or scheduled for grading.

The best part about CGC was the turnaround times. I wish we would've been sent an email or something saying short turnaround times are being discontinued.

Turn around times aren't something to be discontinued, they just have to adjust based on volume.
