Very interesting list. I don't think you need to win in order to turn a profit, looking at the stud fees for the more durable sires, looks like you could quickly turn a profit. String together a good number of place and show finshes and you are quietly collecting and depositing cash.
If I were in a position to designate the breeding for "my" horse, I would go for durability over precociousness; it seems for others that ego trumps profitablity/durability.

I honestly think that for the most part this is a list full of weak sires of slow horses (the bottom list). The expenses that are incurred in the day to day training are the major expenses, not stud fees. Breeding to most of the list (with a few notable exceptions) will get you a slow horse who may make a lot of starts and lose you a ton of money.

It all comes down to the breeding shed...
If you have a horse sired by many at the top of the list, you have little expectation of whisking them off to the breeding shed early because "there is nothing left to prove"
