You are also EXTREMELY underestimating the power and potential of animals' brains. There are multiple factors being affected in the brain to cause the spider problems. You can't just 'breed down' an animal with neurological affects, without expecting it to also affect something you didn't think could happen.
You can't breed animals into specific brain functions. It's not that simple. You can't breed a ball python to learn how to go through a maze. Brain function is too delicate and intricate.
My point is that she is alive and well, that is proof enough for me, to not avoid them. No wobble in over a year, very minimal when she first transitioned to our home. So does she have it, yes. But so minimal that it hasn't again been seen. It also doesn't affect her life AT ALL. So why would you avoid that? I have seen only a handful of "trainwreck" spiders and that has been on you tube. How many thousands of them have been hatched that are just fine? There are dog breeds with problems that are more prone to certain breeds, yet they still breed and are happy healthy animals.
