I suspect that the answer is in that they are more dynamic types and everything that would come with it. Like, for example, a revolutionary approach to expansion in the search for new horizons in the unknown, they would lose numbers in various ways.
Conversely, the more static character of the Cromagnoids and derivatives would be a more conservative approach, like less adventured expansions.
Something along those lines?
