Agreed. However, I would thing that folks that go through the trouble of
reading a forum like this one, or listen to the radio shows on the weekend
or watch CTG on PBS really are not going to go and buy these products.

Indeed! We just planted our 4-inch tomatoes into temporary 1-gallon pots
using Vortex soil, some organic fertilizer, some mineral mix, and dry
molasses. We then watered them with seaweed solution. We'll see how they
do. This is the first time we've started tomatoes this way (we also have
some seeds in 4-inch pots).
