That still doesn’t make it right though.
There was a similar sort of issue with GM corn seed. The seed would grow the corn OK but the plant was sterile. Meaning that the farmers couldn’t set aside some of the harvest to grow next year’s crop and had to buy more seed from the GM company. I’m not sure if it was ever resolved though.
Quite a long while back there was a Panorama or Dispatches programme about this issue. It would appear that nothing positive was ever done about it.
