I agree. Yorkies have become a status symbol unfortunately. People want the smallest, most expensive (seemingly) dog. They see it as an accessory, not a live creature sadly. I've had people comment on how "huge" my Uni is at all of 5.5 lbs and how their yorkie is "micro" and a pound. It's like people want to be a size zero. If they can't, they will buy a pup that is.

Bulgy eyes = hydrocephalus. Teddy bear face aka short muzzle= teeth problems. Not something I would want to deal with.
