So because a dog has a 'very very soft' coat that makes up for any risk of increased health issues?

True. But how are these issues 'postive' aspects related to mixed breeding...or
any breeding?

Is this a personal theory? Because it certainly isn't a proven fact stated in the history of the breed....

Predicting that a puppy will be 'cute' is a given. What puppy isn't cute?
But that is not the same as breeding to get a predictable, goal physical result. Generally speaking, one can't claim they are mixing breeds to produce a specific desired "look" because there IS no defined "look." There are a wide variety of "looks" possible from this type of breeding.
