I would like to break away from this "argument" for a second. You state that the Leopard boa is a Sonoran morph. I have heard from many people (many Europeans and a prominent German) that the true locality of the original boas was never proven, but only suspected to be Leopard. Could you provide me with an exact breakdown of the ancestry of this morph?
Also, I like others feel that you have become a complete hypocrite regarding your new stance on "morphs". You slate albino x anerythristics as something inexcusable, yet both originate from true Colombian locality boas. I personally breed many color morphs, and in general try to keep them locality pure (e.g. hypo, anerythristic, and leopard Sonorans; various true Nicaraguan morphs, etc), but I see the beauty in some of the locality crosses. I also see great beauty in locale pure animals and strive to maintain highly pure lines in my collection.
