Google putting seo's out of work with xml spidering

I'm guessing anyway, as one thing people need an seo to tell them,
usually, is thst their drop-down menu can't be navigated by the
engines' spiders. Now if the all the pages can be indexed in Google
due to implementation of the xml sitemap, and cannot be indexed in
other engines as their spiders can't traverse the links, Google's
index will grow where others shrink. So the other engines simply have
to follow suit here.
Mind you, let's see if the damn thing works first.

Actually, I believe you are mistaken. SE's can pick these up from the source
code. Another way to look at it is to say that drop-down menus prevent PR
'leakage' while serving human visitors just fine

Now if the all the pages can be indexed in Google
due to implementation of the xml sitemap, and cannot be indexed in
other engines as their spiders can't traverse the links, Google's

That's quite true. It gives Google an advantage... like a browser
implementing non-stardard features and opponent browsers forced to keep up.

How will you ever know? Nobody knows the big picture the Google 'black box'.
All you can do is argue that you descended in SERP's ever since you XML'd
your sitemap. But how can you consider all the possible factors?

I have seen keywords in drop-down menus appearing in the serps
for at least a month now.

What PR will Google assign these sitemaps links - if the pages are still
orphan pages they will not show up well in SERPS until Google makes a
break with PR and anchor text.
