Oh I know we don't have to do them, I do genuinely believe its good to do a BN before a CD because its far less pressure and a great introduction to the ring. Also, I do genuinely believe a stepping stone between the CDX and UD would be nice as they are really very different and lack any real building blocks from previous classes.
I don't however see the drive to spend money to go between the BN & CD with a prenovice? What do you practice in there, that you don't in the BN, to prepare for the CD? Maybe I need to reread the PDF again.
On that note, I'd rather see more wildcards at discount prices, but that doesn't financially benefit the AKC.
