Yep. Exactly. I thought of that after but couldn't remember any names. Produced for the store under their name, not necessarily by them. Could be from the biggest major manufacturer and still be a boutique brand. That's why the term is misleading, or not, if that's what you expect. It seems nowadays words only mean what you expect them to mean. I think I could write the next sentence and step on about three of the DO NOTs in the forum rules, words that don't mean their definitions.

Could start a whole thread about that.
