hi i m no biology expert or anything like you guys might be like you say we have strengths and weaknesses but from what i know about inbreeding there are pros and cons , for example it produces uniform predictable offspring, hidden genes show up and can be eliminated, they are known as true or ''pure breeds''and it may double good genes it also gets rid of unwanted traits. however it doubles faults and weeknesses, the imune system becomes less active . it increases reproductive faliure, the accidental loss of good genes and sometimes just geneticly improverished indivuiduals.
for more info on inbreeding check this out:
