You're right. They are using P2, P3, P4 and Px as working names for the other non-PSSM variants. They are not the same as the sugar storage problem with PSSM1 horses and they are not the same as each other as far as what causes them. I'm sure we will all need to learn new terms when the scientific community finally names the mutations.
