Ultimately its about marketing and most stoners/growers arent exactly nerds who care about scientific accuracy. As a nerd my suggestion would be to have an actual lexicon attaching each terp +pheno to a specific word and append the growers last name/company name. force the industry to standardize. I think its fine to have strains like "spicey lemon Smith" as long as each of those words is riggerously attached to a specific meaning like spice is the cinnamony terp, lemon is limoline, Smith is company grower name.
All crap nondescript hype words like "ak" "og" "kush" "diesel" go right in the fucking bin IMO.
Of course this is pure theory crafting what if. You and I both know 99% of stoners dont actually care about name accuracy enough to make the industry self-police. as long as it gets them where they want. anyone who does care about exacts buys based off lab testing result data sheets.
