Oscar it is true most scientists in their quest for taxonomic 'truth' become lumpers and hobbyists become splitters.Where hobbyists rule the roost like in orchids, fertile crosses between genera are commonplace.Good and popular fruit in cultivation seem to have had the living daylights split out of them.The dicotomy between the scientic and horticultural classification is seen all over the place.Imagine how many citrus are real species.....not many by scientific definitions of species.This is where the old saying, "if you don't like it you can lump it", comes from.
I have to admit I am a splitter as well.
