Thoughts about 3/4 Hybrids in Beastars

A few months ago, I was thinking about Melon's hybrid issues, particularly the biological issues concerning his sense of taste, and how Legoshi didn't suffer from them due to being a carnivorous hybrid (3/4 gray wolf, 1/4 Komodo dragon), and I was wondering: If a carnivore-herbivore hybrid mated with a pureblooded carnivore or pureblooded herbivore, what would their children be like? Would they suffer the same as Melon, with conflicting biology and lack of taste, or would they start off that way only to gradually recover their taste palates? No doubt they'd still be discriminated against, but they'd probably be able to pass off as more pureblooded with some minor traits as they came of age with their metamorphosis. They'd probably look more like a carnivore-herbivore hybrid as a child (neither fully carni or herbi like how Mel looked after he physically changed?), but during their transformation they'd probably end up passing off more like a pureblooded carnivore or herbivore? Considering how much we know about carnivore-herbivore hybridization in the Beastars universe, and how Paru didn't really bring something like this up, I'm assuming that 3/4 carnivore, 1/4 herbivore hybrids (or vice versa) would work somewhat like this. It's interesting to think about.
