Some times I feel the practice of calling a note as Shuddha is unnecessary. Depending upon our convention, the same note may or may not be referred to as Shuddha. For eg., the Komal Rishab of Hindustani Music is referred to as Shuddha Rishabha in Karnatic Music.
There are two varieties of each swara except Sa and Pa. The lower-pitch version of the note may be referred to as Komal version and the higher-pitch version as Tivra version. If this logic is applied, then, Ma of Bilawal scale may be called as Komal Ma and Ma of Yaman may be called as Tivra Ma.
This is open for further discussion.
