If it is this way, we will never be able to put names on anything because
like I said we are discovering new data all the time without a stopping
point. All names, as hard as we try, are human construct of what a species
should be but nature is just not like that. There are variations that keep
us guessing.

Of course I understand the need to keep the same name for commercial
purposes, which is why using the most current name plus a synomym is a good
option that many nurseries here have been doing.
