Are you sure? Of course many conifers other than junipers exhibit similar
behavior in nature. The difference with junipers is that you can never cut

off
a branch & have the trunk callus over. With pine trees, you can make a jin

if
you want one, or cut the branch off if you choose to. Pines callus over
eventually.
