Yeah, maybe I got too nuanced or technical here. But I've seen instances with wheels, headsets and bottom brackets where there is grit on some part that contacts while rotating, but where there was still no grit in the bearing races. BUt I agree that the mention of the "grit sound" counts for a lot more than that "the front wheel turns smoothly."
