Over the last 10-20 years Cannabis has been heavily bred from the old single variety or LandRace strains into hybrid strains. Hybrids can be bred from Sat+Sat, Sat+Ind, Ind+Sat and Ind+Ind, and is usually to increase certain traits (size, shape, flavors and medicinal effects). The intention is usually NOT to increase trippy psychedelic effects (undesirable to many as it increases anxiety).
As a Caregiver I usually recommend lighter Hybrids (70%S, 30%I) for new users and Indica for stronger/sleepier effects. It all depends on the person's personal need and how it affects them.
As for the comment above that Oils and Extraction removing natural terpenes, this is only true if the operator intends to do this. Usually a producer makes diamonds and oil so that the terpene removed from the diamond sauce is added to the oil batch, to enhance flavor.
Some less reputable producers sell off their natural terpenes to other vendors and then add lab produced terpenes. This is evident in the oils that taste like Lemon Mr Clean (limoneme) or Berry (myrcene), anything that tastes unreal. In my opinion this unnatural enhancement should be illegal.
