I highly doubt its your link power that puts your site in the ranks with the affiliate code, its the affiliates link power that puts them their, google have listed the affiliate page/link for a reason.
Disallowing the indexing of that and taking that traffic from the affiliate is blatent theft.

Linking codes hurt paysites/galleries. Webmasters use all types of stupid words, that don't match any text on the gallery. So it looks like a bunch of duplicate links going to the same page, that google can't figure out what the focus is about, since everyone says it's about CLick Here, and the gallery says it's lesbians, google goes, huh? And ends up listing the webmaster with the best value, rather than the gallery which is the honest focus.
Nobody would be stealing anything. Google will not count or list, the entire ?nats= url. It won't drop the ?nats= and give the value to the url without it. Simply because, he would have told google to totally disallow it all the way.
