I have been scratching my head about that since I got into this breed. Breed standard's should read like a manual and most do! They use the word is and are or nothing.. Could you possibly imagine if a manual to build something read with the word should? (You car "should" have 4 tires) you could put on only 2 but it wont work very well.. :)
