    If I buy ice cream and it has peanuts in it, the label has to have peanuts included in the ingredient list

    Yes, but those peanuts don't say that peanuts are allotetraploids, or say if they have genes from wild Arachis species in it, for example like the TxAG- 7 line's descendants do as a result of some complex and clever 'conventional breeding', and I don't see you demanding that they do so.

    You picked a poor choice of example.
