BTW, when talking to TLG, they call this color "transparent neon green".

I'd say yes.  Although I've seen 'transparent' given as an attribute of the

"transparent 2x4 brick, red"
rather than
"2x4 brick, transparent red"

But that seems odd to me.

semi-compatible bricks that had a lot of GitD pieces.
