That said, vigorous debate can be both refreshing and
revealing.
Sure. I was just summing up.

If the history of True Black Brandywine is invented,
turning up Feejee Improved from the literature as
the alleged non-Brandywine parent is quite a feat
of research itself: a possibly dark-pigmented
late-19th, early-20th century cultivar that no one
can disprove as the source of the "black" in
True Black Brandywine because no one alive has
ever seen it growing.
