JBOC Note: In Wie Blumen in der Wüste Siawosch Azadi delineated a
group that esthetically fit within the confines of the
Chodor group but appear to be Yomut in structure. This
group is referred to as Pseudo-Chodor. I find the whole
argument less than compelling (or maybe over my head
since Azadi is very sharp) but it is certainly worthy of
consideration.
