Tubers again

Months ago we had a healthy discussion about Tubers, Rhizomes, Corms,
Bulbs etc.
In summary I think most people (who said anything) agreed that the
majority of Arisaema have tubers, whilst some are more obviously
rhizomatous.
I notice that lately postings have largely referred to bulbs or corms.
One may wonder whether it matters!  But I think on balance that if we,
as the only Arisaema group (that I know of) in the world, can't get it
reasonably right, what hope is there for others?
