"Melee diamonds HPHT is whiter, CVD is slightly lower quality to look like natural" how accurate is this?

[DiamondDuck]

So I've been chatting with a few Indian diamond sellers. Both of them has this opinion:

- HPHT = DE color, super white + transparent. Higher quality
- CVD = EFG color, look more natural. Bangkok / Dubai mostly buy CVD, rarely HPHT (from them, at least)

I've always bought only HPHT diamonds (because the first big one I buy is a HPHT diamond from JannPaul and it looks great), but I'm thinking about buying some CVD melee to test.

Could someone in the trade give their opinion about HPHT vs CVD melee diamond? Also remember that buying direct from India as a consumer means no screening or quality assurance, so we need to talk about the average quality.

Thank you.
