Question Musa Aurantiaca: Edible Seeded banana?

Hello everyone. I was looking through the Wiki and Found this about Musa Aurantiaca:

Quote:
This species is very rare in cultivation. It is a member of the Rodochlamys subgenera so is similar to species as Musa velutina and Musa ornata except M. aurantiaca has an orange flower. The seeds are exceptionally small, one of the the smallest banana seeds, round with a smooth light-brown seed coat.
If the seeds are that small, then could this be an edible, seeded banana? i have heard that M. velutina has sweet flesh but is too seedy for normal consumption, but if this is related, and has smaller seeds, then, well... you see where I'm getting at.
