It's much, much, less likely. Half of women with down syndrome are infertile. If they do get pregnant they usually end with a miscarriage and there is a 50% chance the syndrome won't be passed down.
Homosapiens are a result of chromosomal fusion, so I would approach the claim of "accruing defects" with great skepticism. Nature is still selecting as evidence by inflicting a high miscarriage & infertility rate.
