And yet they are very very different each strain. Doesnt matter if "indica" is fake, they test how it smoked and declare it that type and it is a meaningful difference.

Things marked sativa give me headaches inevitably. Hybrids and indica marked bud doesnt. There is a difference in how breeds effect you, despite incorrect colloquial naming.

In reality testing shows that named strains are not a thing, the testing shows THC and cbd content among things like tannins occasionally, but the only proven relevance to anything is THC.

"Incorrect colloquial naming" is an understatement, genetically weed strains as they are named don't exist at all.

That said, stuff labeled indica on the package may have been formulated to be more relaxing by the manufacturer. Such as by having more CBD and less THC.
