Isn't the whole biodegradability thing a bit of a red herring anyways? Just have a reasonably good waste collection system, then either incinerate (yay, dispatchable carbon neutral energy!) or landfill (yay, carbon capture and burial!) and call it a victory. The key benefit of plant based plastics is that no fossil hydrocarbons have been reintroduced back into the active cycle to make it.
