known, and since many are well known and commerically successful, and
since they will continue to be sold commerically, why not just say
these hostas are hereby accepted as registered hostas and include them
in the database of registered hostas. It seems to me that would solve
a LOT of problems. Of course, that is a logical solution which might
not be understandable to some people.

I majored undergrad in theoretical mathematics. It is great fun to dabble in
such.
One can construct a new math where, in some cases, 2 does not equal 2. Or,
more likely, a x b is not = b x a. I think the IAC thing is analogous.
Someone( and I know you) dreamed this up , without any practical or logical
foundation.
It would be best to do what Joe suggests. In other words, just forget about
it. It is silly from a logical viewpoint. It is nothing more than a child's
game.
