There's really no reason to disallow it - if someone chooses the pet with 10 less potency because they think it looks cute and they aren't in the process of doing high end content, why not let them? Carbuncle is adorable and the Egis aren't nearly as popular it seems.
This.

That said, there is no reason for the Carbuncles to have 10 less potency. >.>

PS:

Not really sure why I'm even arguing with people about this. It has zero effect on gameplay. It's fairly easy to implemented. It doesn't affect them the slightest.

The only reason I can see why they should not be given to SMN is if SE has some other plans for them - once they are given to SMN they can't just take it back.
