I would point out that it is just as important to have immitators. And that a fish from an immitator can be equally impressive if not far more impressive than one from an innovator. But the successful innovator will win out in the long run. As an example, an innovator had the vision to introduce magoi blood. Now, the GC of the AJS must be over 90 cm to win. So, unless the immitators change brood stock to include ones with the magoi blood, they can no longer compete for GC at the AJS.
