We are focusing on both, afaik. I'm pretty sure the doc/aop/igp qualifications relate to quality as well as geography. It's not just about the location.

And there's nothing stopping anyone from making a better cheese, naming it whatever else other than a trademarked name and building a reputation for quality. So I don't see what the issue is.

Edit: happy now?

"Can we stop caring about location and only care about quality?"

"Technically we are, the qualifications relate to quality as well as geography"
