They are just a plant. If you put them in some kind of loose dirt and don't drown them, they will grow. Maybe some ways are better than others, but healthy corms will sprout if treated like a plant. The main advantage that I see from planting corms in sand in pots at first is ease of checking for rot and growth.
Kudos for being your own person and going your own way. (and admitting it) If it works, it ain't wrong.
