I think the whitest boa will be the Albino CA Super Motley as well. Since the Super CA is Black it would only make sense that the albino form would be white, however this might not end up true. If it is truly black (as in absence of all other color) then it would work. If it is Black in the sence of masking underlying colors, the albino may still have xanthin or erythin pigments.
I agree with you on names for designer morphs, those which have been created like snow, ghost, blizzard, and sunglow came from the long present form of the mutation in Corn Snakes. Things that are exclusive to Boas like Arabeque Albinos, are called just that and nothing more.
If the Type II Anerythristic that Jeremy started the Blizzard project with turns out to be Axanthic, then the Albino form of the mutation would have no red (erythin), yellow (xanthin), or black (melanin) leaveing a white boa. It will be interesting no matter what the outcome.
