Troy,
You bring up some good questions that are rearely asked...

Another point that has suprizingly not been brought up is the fact that when two different recessives are bred together, the resulting offspring are normal in color... So you see no results in the first generation... With incomplete dominance you see the results in the first generation...

When an animal is doulble honozygous the reason you are able to see both traits is because the two recessives ride on different loci...
With incomplete dominance, the blending happens on the same loci...

At least that how I understand it...
