When he can bring something valuable to the existing herd despite his obvious faults/problems.
I agree with you, but I would also ask that you consider this - a beginner just starting out does not necessarily have that option. He/she is usually limited by resources/finances, and has to find the best bull at a price they can afford. If the bull can improve their herd then it is a step up, and they can build from there as their situation improves.
