I think you bring up some very valid points. I respect those who take on the challenges of special needs dogs. I feel everybody has the right to decide if they want to purchase or rescue their dog. If they decide to purchase it is important that people should research where their new dog is coming from and make sure it is from a reputable breeder. Also they must realize that it is a life time commitment to a living being and be prepared to assume responsibility for the animals care. If you are not sure you can handle the responsibility then wait until you are ready.
