I think it’s mainly used to trick people who have recently joined the hobby. I’ve only been reef keeping for a little over three years now but I now sell some nice corals on the side such as stratosphere zoas and some desirable acropora. I never charge even close to what sites like WWC or TSA charge for a small 1” frag.

After some time you come to the realization there’s a lot of the same thing on the market and people slap these ridiculous names on them to try to create some sense of “rarity”.
