I shall repeat my question. Does anyone know of any other recent, by which
I 
mean non-historic, hybrid iris about which people have so enjoyed holding
and 
expressing such strong and conflicting opinions on the basis of color and 
form? <

Arilbreds of "non-standard" breeding are often subjected to this.  

GENE'S LITTLE SECRET [there's an imposter in distribution to complicate
matters]
LAVENDER LEMON ["can't be a 3/4-bred with that branching"]
TRIBE OF JUDAH [ditto]
REBEKAH'S VEIL [ditto, plus "can't be an arilbred because it's a plicata"]
COPE GOODWIN ["has to be at least a halfbred, with that signal"]

Etc.!  Too many preconceived notions about what an arilbred "should" look
like....
