If that's your perspective, it's not really germane to the matter under discussion. What the OP is concerned about is whether certain conduct could expose him or his spouse to criminal liability. And the larger question, on this particular board, is whether certain conduct in connection with the purchase, sale or transfer of a gun exposes one or more participants to criminal liability. If you use a definition of "straw purchase' under which the conduct may, or may not, give rise to criminal liability, deciding that something is a straw purchase using your definition doesn't tell us what we want to know.
