I'm not questioning the legality, just the ethics. It's a clear attempt to deceive the buyer into thinking they're getting something they're not. Now, lots of buyers know better and don't care. My worry is that if BD has no moral problem with that level of deception, they probably have no problem with similar types of deception.
