Curious: why no dun or dilute? Because it makes the markings less "striking"?

I agree with you wholeheartedly that mixing appy & grey is an odd
thing to do (and I LOVE greys), but I've always wondered why this
aversion to how grey changes the visibility of the markings is
viewed so differently than how the progressive appy roan changes
whether the markings are visible or not?  Is it because appy roan
is an appy-only trait, whereas grey is not? Just curious.

There are 2 ways to win at this sport. You take a horse and race him for a
short time and then find a new horse or you can take one horse , do the
homework and spend many miles and years enjoying that horse.

You don't have to be a 100-mile rider or a multi-day rider to be an
endurance rider, but if you want to experience the finest challenges our
sport has to offer, you need to do both of those.
