Let's be honest. The genetics system in game is confusing at best, it's always seemed a random mess of guesswork, it's incredibly hard to try and understand what they mean and how they effect animal color and genes when you have no base line. What is the point of the genetics? The genes in-game are meaningless; we have absolutely no idea what they mean and a grey animal from the market has a completely different genome then the grey animal you bred.
So.... Why not give us a baseline? Why not lump genetic and animal research onto the vet where we can research base genomes (A, B, C, whatever) and just for a random example, find that A (let's say agouti) is dominant over B (black). This gives us a baseline and now lets us know that our Aa BB wolves will only ever be agouti unless we pick up an aa mate. If you're going to have a genetic system in your game, why make it virtually impossible to figure it out? Give us a baseline to work with so we can plan our breeding projects around colors we want in our zoos.
On that note, the genetics don't really make any sense. Mixing letters (AB, DC, etc) is extremely uncommon compared to single letter genomes (aa, cc) or subscript genomes (XoXO). I am not sure what the subscript genomes are actually called, just that it's incredibly rare to actually see straight up mixed letters in genome to repressent a single genome, they're usually combined in some way like the inhibitor gene in cats.
