Durgan, the problem is that you're presenting yourself as an expert based on limited experience and arguing with people who really are well known experts.

Your posts show an arrogance and a lack of civility that is distasteful, so you don't get a great response to what you're saying.

Without going to a great deal of trouble to carefully remove soil to show an intact plant with tubers attached, a picture of a pile of potatoes isn't going to prove anything. The reason you can't find a picture is that nobody digs potatoes like an archaeologist. It's been explained to you why you observe the results you do based on the varieties grown, but you don't seem interested in trying to learn, only in continuing a flawed argument.

Thanks for saying that!
