@Sbishop: I still can't see a significant claim of ornamental use in #Modern section. Even if there is some ornamental use (yeah, it's evergreen and is kind of nice plant to have in your backyard; but I haven't seen it sold in decorative plant nurseries like several of its Ficus relatives), I think it's quite marginal compared to its economic importance as foodstuff. Therefore, it's undue to mention in the lead paragraph per MOS:LEADREL, and I'm still inclined to remove it as a minor aspect. Do you agree?

I don't mind this aspect being removed the lead, I agree it isn't a significant use for the plant compared with its culinary one. Sbishop (talk) 13:50, 18 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
