After all, this is considered a major fault and one that's very difficult to eliminate, so of course, breeders are worried that this could become a trait in even more lines.

I really do not understand where the big worry is.
The standard breeders will always keep their lines parti free, or as free as they have always been, occasionally one pops up. There is room in the world and in the show ring for both colors.
In fact, had the YTCA embraced the color instead of denying that it existed, they would have some control over what is being done with it.
JMO but I believe it was a foollish mistake on the part of the YTCA to ignore the color all these years, and to leave it to the hands of unscrupulous people.
