I've seen the same kind of posts questioning many different new mutations like Enchi, Vanilla, even Mojave and Pastel. Some of it I'm sure is because of people not being able to see the potential in something new but I think it might also be because a lot of the early example of new mutations are not the best examples. It's inevitable that any new mutations will be 'cleaned up' through selective breeding over time. Early Pastels were really not very noteworthy compared to typical examples produced today.
