Comparing apples to oranges aside, hybridization is NOT approved of by most hobbyists, unless for scientific purposes only. None of us want any of these creatures finding their way into the market and further confusing our already huge task of classifying the species that are already known. And very, VERY few hobbyists have the skill, maturity level and appreciation for the preservation of taxonomic identification to do it simply for study.

And I agree with this. Good summarization

Despite what some w/o the genetic background are saying, some hybrids would be poor, but some would not. And you would likely find some are improperly classified. That's really the whole point, though, learning these things.

And hate it to your core, it is still happening and will happen. Best control it lest it control the hobby.
