Here is my answer again!

I don't think this has ever been the goal. I believe the Ideah is that with Ball Pythons for example, in such large quantities and in much higher quality than fresh imports, then this would releive pressure to import wild animals. Why would you buy a freshly imported Ball with all the problems associated with them, when you can buy a super nice captive bred one? This is how we help the situation hopefully. Prices come down drastically for wild imports and thus they become less lucrative for the people catching and selling them.
