I'm sure others will give you their opinions on things like that.
IMHO it's a matter of meeting the animal's requirements. If the snake is healthy and comfortable within it's environment, it should be pretty mellow. Never seen a healthy secure captive born adult boa that wasn't easily managed by it's keeper. Of course, you've got to be able to read your snake, just as you would a dog, or a horse, or any domestic animal. I'm NOT saying a snake is a domestic animal, of course. However, misunderstandings do occur from time to time. So, pay attention and always use the same tactile cues/routine with your snake every time. No problem -- future boa wisperer.
