Having purchased a few purebred dogs from registered breeders over the years, I must say a few of them were not accompanied with limited reg. I have been happy with each and everyone of them so no problems there. I was wondering why ?

Reclaiming a dog? Hell no! What? one rears the pup and then the breeder feels it is within her or his rights to claim it back? over my dead body You are bloody right in saying that a dog on limited reg is in no way inferior; I have also seen some show quality pets that are much loved as simply four legged members of the family.

Yep, agree. Puppy shots, booster 12 mths later and then no more shots. There are quite a few breeders that reach an agreement with the puppy buyer in which they can breed with it if the pup matures to show quality standards; I guess that is between the breeder and the new owner. I don't personally like the idea of that and would never enter into such an agreement.
