True, the dog may have a CH title, may make breedings more marketable, but what does it really matter if the dogs he produces have LS. Same concept, I suppose. Sure, the dog may not actually be a Parti, the CH title may make the pups more marketable, but what would it matter if the dogs produced are Parti and non standard.

That's kind of what I take the statment to mean.
Not the same thing. Since LS has no genetic marker to determine where a dog is a carrier, and bile acids can only determine that the dog does not have LS. The dogs that are 'known' by parti breeders to be parti carriers are being Championed.
