this way you can still tell if the dinker does something genetic or not, because a super male to a normal female produces uniform clutches, and you can also check if it interacts with a known gene complex
True, but if you are trying to single out a mystery gene a normal male can still be of use. You need to be able to properly identify the new "single gene" before you go selling off your brand new "proven" gene IMO.
