Why would defective recessive alleles be retained in the gene pool?

Defective recessive alleles can be retained in the gene pool because they may not affect individuals who are carriers of the allele (heterozygotes). Additionally, in small populations, genetic drift can lead to the retention of defective alleles. Finally, if the defective allele provides a selective advantage in certain environmental conditions, it may persist in the population.
