OK, let's leave the logo out of it...

The fact remains it is STILL the same paper...

Chris Bair (InkJetArt.com) knows/says that, and the product manager for 
EPSON pro consumables in the US confirmed it at Photo Plus Expo East in 
November and, AFAIK, Jerry Olson's tests show that...

I hope that's good enough..

 From what I hear from as they say "reliable sources," after the latest 
Wilhelm test data came back, EPSON chose to change the name from 
"Archival" (especially given Euro "Blue Wool #6 or better" concerns) to 
"Enhanced" to avoid potential legal issues involved in calling a paper 
"Archival" which was not literally "archival"..
