>>BTW you didn't answer my question, if someone had a lone female Silver Blonde and wanted to produce Silver Normals, would you reccommend they buy a male "Mercury", or a male Silver Normal?
Yeah, I would of course have them buy a "non-Black Gap" Silver male until they proved allelic, but I would never call yours a Mercury, because to me that denotes a different mutation, which those snakes are not.
I would certainly see a reason for naming it Mercury Axanthic (or Axanthic type B) if, after you (or someone else) test breeds them, they still prove non-allelic. Just not before.
Otherwise, people will probably say one day soon, "Whatever happened to that Mercury phase Suboc?" LOL
Again, I enjoy these conversations, Aaron...I know I get excited about them, so don't think that I'm a jerk...I just like to discuss ideas. And I've been wrong probably as many times as I've been right. 
Regards,
Dusty
