Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's request to reverse the February 1, 1980 rating decision on the basis of clear and unmistakable error (CUE) because the September 2018 Board decision subsumed the earlier RO decision.
The deciding factor: The requirement that the Board base its decision on the same factual basis has been met, thus the February 1980 rating decision was subsumed by the September 2018 Board decision and no CUE exists as a matter of law.
