The difference is George, that the whole "trad" thing in english folk music is obfuscated by special interest groups, in-fighting, class war, people who are up themselves etc etc .....that no matter what anyone says, the definition is clouded by politics. I also think this row is being used as a smoke screen, almost like a legal tachnicality, to attack succesful young singers with attitude, Mike Harding,John Leonard and the Folk Awards. Just look back through the various threads and the level of bile is quite shocking. As I've said before, I don't think it does the folk scene's image any favours.
