That's certainly a cynical view. I have grown the Fried Green Hybrid, and it is a green beefsteak that never turns color (actually, the surface flushes slightly yellow when "ripe"). However it is not astringent/chalky when the surface flushes slightly yellow. The fruits (for me) were crunchy, tangy and pleasant. They can be eaten raw. But they also make great fried green tomatoes.
In other words, it is exactly as they advertise.
