Why not use liquid floatant on a Waterwisp?

The body of all Waterwisp flies, except the deerhair beetle, is made of cul-de-canard, the naturally oil-impregnated feather from around the preening gland of ducks. Paste or liquid floatants will mat the cul-de-canard and reduce its natural floatability.
