You don't think being a better breaker is more advantageous than being, say, a better safety player, or kicker, or jumper, or long shot maker... or take your pick?
A better breaker is a player of more talent on the break and more hard work around it, there is no reason to have a skill in any part of the game "dissapearing" in favor of the less talented and less working player in that part.
If he wants to be equal in that part too he should put the hard work behind it (even more if he hass less talent), not be allowed to bypass this procedure around a diiferent rack setup. That can only be good for the game (pursuit of excellence in all parts) and protects the best players, the opposite is bad.
