Default stratification

hi

i did read on some websites that musa sikkimensis stratification on 4 C for several weeks will improve germination.
of course i understand that most musa seeds don't need stratification.
but if we look at sikkimensis native habitat we see that there are cold spells there for a long time.

have anybody tried stratification with m.sikki ?
most people wil say that there is no need for stratification or say it makes seeds dormant but haven't tried stratification yet, me and some other people want some solid information.

with stratification i don't mean freezes i mean cold temps like 4 / 5 C'
