How is it cut and dry? There are over 20 people saying they plan to create them and over 60 people saying they're open to the idea. That means there are hundreds of people out there who feel this way, not to mention several times that who don't understand or care about the situation, not to mention the accidents which will come from people who themselves don't like hybrids. There will always be hybrids galore. The fact that more people dislike them than like them won't stop the others from creating them.

Most of the pure stuff going around isn't pure anyway, it's just snake soup with a false label. Being so anti-hybrid just means that hybrids (which are going to be everywhere whether we like it or not) will be misrepresented. The result of this is that things which actually are pure don't look so special because everything supposedly is.

The reality of hybrids being everywhere should be acknowledged. By trying to get rid of something we can't, we're just going to cause problems, we're just going to force people to be dishonest, which makes the problem worse.

(Yes, a lot of this is said in general, not directed at junglepython2)
