I would "worry about it" because genetically linked imperfections of any kind are a huge deal in the gecko world where I am coming from. Ball pythons are still new to me and I am quickly finding out that there are different standards and expectations when dealing with designer morphs.
In geckos a kinked tail could be genetic or it could be temperature flux related from incubation. Either way, the gecko community at large spurns anyone selling these animals and some encourage culling them upon hatching. Similarly to the spider wobble, enigma geckos have a head tilt/spin/wobble that sometimes manifests in examples of this morph. Again, there is a negative association with purchasing, selling or breeding these animals because they are not "perfect." I simply hesitated to jump in head first into working with genes known to have issues. But if the community at large is not as judicious (assuming that the animal can function well on its own) then I am less concerned that my new bumblebee will develop an undesirable trait for which I would be scrutinized. That's all.
