Very good post, and a point I was trying to give on another thread.
nothing is easy, and I'm sorry to rock the boat, but you shouldn't "use" a variety to settle into things, go for what your going to end up with. For all the reasons stated in the original post. If it means waiting months untill you have made a decision, then that's the way it's going to be!
For me, I was breeding hobbies from show stock mice, simply because I love not knowing what's going to come out, and just because I have now chosen Fawns, I'm not going to stop something I have enjoyed. And I think as long as that is the case for this variety you have got to settle into, theres nothing wrong with that.
I'm sorry, I've seen it too often in cavies, that people buy a variety and then quickly go off them because they weren't right, always makes me think they should have put more time into thinking it through.
