Part of the reason they get discounted is that Brahman cattle cannot be put on a hot grain ration - I think the feedlots need them to be about 3/8% to put on feed.
That's why there are so many crosses. People need the "ear" for the heat & bug resistance in the south, but need other breeds influence for the feedlots.
