I dunno...I disagree. And I think it would bring out a whole new calibre of
training. Look at obedience dogs. Open and Utility exercises are done
entirely off lead. Sits and downs, off lead. Figure 8, off lead. Recall, off
lead. Heeling pattern, off lead.
Seems a little silly (and stodgy) for AKC to state such a thing. Why bother
with obedience then. People SHOULD teach their dog more than just how to gait
ON a lead. They should learn how to do it off lead too! Whether you show
that way or not is another kettle of mush, but to even HAVE that training can
be
an advantage, should you ever take a spill and your dog gets away from you.

off lead would certainly be "losing control"
