Been a way for a while, have a concern

Go on then. Give me one benefit to the hobby from breeding snakes with a guaranteed disability. What do we gain, how is the hobby advanced by this practice?

I can think of precisely one - different coloured snakes and that hardly justifies the practice but I'm open to hearing others if there are some.

1- supply. demand.

2- Amazing morph/ combos some with great personalities despite.

3- More keepers get to study a reptile that is a enigma and is under constant examination and study by big breeders, veterinary schools when the elective is exotics (reptile genetic chromosomal abnormalities). And commonly people who just love the morph.
