Why did you link to shrimp aquarium website?
I think that's part of their signature? It's hard to tell but I've seen this user beforehand and I think that's what it is.
I guess for me, it varies. I try not to do inbreeding but, unfortunately, some of my manchados are inbred to a soft varying degree and there was one, either a carrier or mama flat out, that ended up also being inbred too but was able to be sold decently as I outbid others to win the foal.
The problem you sometimes run into is, there isn't enough horses outside your own stock to breed to and thus some of my earlier on manchado thoroughbreds have some form of being inbred. It unfortunately took time to get my stock but when there wasn't that many good studs and broodmares to use, you end up in a bind and I, sometimes, just said forget it and bit the bullet so to speak. Manchado thoroughbreds, to me, I can to a degree look over being inbred but not always and so far, I haven't had this issue yet with my other stock.
I think it depends on the person. I try to avoid it, but like TheDustyAngel said, sometimes it's very hard to find outside lines that meet your breeding goals. Usually I avoid buying horses or using studs that are closely inbred, but if there's some great-grandparents that are the same I don't mind.
imo inbreeding lines are worth a lot less than clean-lined ones or line breeding etc. I usually don't pay for horses that are inbred. but I also understand mistakes can happen
