Because the supers are born looking dehydrated...slender skull structure, different feel, more slender build. The head thing was once defended as a color issue. The head is black, so it just "LOOKS" skinny. That is 100% BS, none of my argentines look like they have skinny heads. They generally tongue flick funny, have bug eyes to some degree, poor appetites, etc. What makes the difference? Don't know for sure, but I've seen my own in person, that I produced, and I've seen others in person and saw the same characteristics. Motleys are fine, even from the same litters, so who knows exactly what is going on, but something isn't lining up properly in the super form. If you think they're okay, buy em' up that's your call. But, the evidence is out there if you really look at them. The posted super in this thread has a goofy head on it. If you REALLY look at the pics people post, you can see the slender head in all of them. I can move the camera so the angle hides it, but it doesn't mean it's not there.
