Uhhhm, I would have thought the answer was self explanatory. The less dogs that are available in the gene pool then the less dogs that are available to work with. Therefore, in order to simplify further...as the breed pool is lessened due to the registry matter at hand, CKCSUSA breeders are unable to use the AKC only dog who is in all likelihood a possible outcross as no one has been able to use those pedigrees for the last 6 years. So basically the old club is technically prohibiting its members from reducing in-breeding.
