No, I don't think it's a matter of not caring; more a question of confusing terminology. The term "Open Pollinated" obviously means very different things to different people.

Perhaps it would be possible to create some sort of standard terminology here for the purpose of making clear the "genealogy" as it were of seeds being offered for trade. Perhaps an ATP set of clearly defined terms, whether or not they're "industry standard," that could be referred to just for the purpose of seed trading here. Perhaps with references to the more confusing terms used elsewhere. The whole idea is (or should be) to provide clarity, not necessarily to conform to some esoteric standard. Maybe?
Confidence is that feeling you have right before you do something really stupid.
