By retaining the (admittedly perjorative) SP label for non-G&Ks, we remind ourselves that we are technically violating, rather than respecting, the rules of the game.

I'm not sure I agree with this and generally think the perjorative term "shiny pebble" gets used a bit too loosely around here. There are two aspects to the GG - the first is investing in known gorillas (which is what this thread focuses on mostly); and the second is investing in a basket of stocks that are in the midst of a gorilla game, with the gamer consolidating over time as the gorilla becomes apparent. Holding a basket of stocks (referred to as shiny pebbles here) that are in a gorilla game is not violating the rules of the game as long as it is a true gorilla game.
