Agreed. Interpreting and straightening out databases of bicycle parts information used to be my job (long ago, at Bike'alog). Unless the tire is really unusual, 700 x **C is the same as 700 x **.

I agree with Blaze, too: ETRTO makes life easy. It makes explaining the compatibility of 700C tires (such as 700x35C aka 35-622) and 29" tires (such as 29 x 2.0" aka 55-622) much easier to comprehend.
