This condition does not carry a selective disadvantage. How can you find out the proportion of people in the population who are carriers of the stuttering allele but do not s...

No. Known mutations, just by the fact that they are known, do not make new alleles. My definition of "mutation" is the standard one: a point mutation, an insertion or deletion, inversion, etc....
