"Another question occurs to me: if there were already so many morphs and hets on the market in the early 90s, why would the burms from the wholesaler not include hets as well?"

wholesalers rarly sell hets because most of there animals go to pet shops where that is of no intrest to them that is why it is common for breeders to sell there large supply of hets to them so they don't go to someone who is going to breed them and compeeted with you. Also a het has no visual markers so you need to really trust someone you are buying from and no one is going to buy a het from a wholsaler and risk it.

BTW I did say that I got a het free with the purchase of an albino for $500 in 1990 so at that time hets had very little value.
