Generalizing a temperment about a species of snake is a rookie mistake and to be taken lightly. If you do your research and I mean research not clicking on a couple links and call it good. It depends on what region you get these beauties from and whether they're wild caught or captive bred. There are soooo many variables to consider before you deem a species "aggressive". I know a few people who have these gorgeous snakes and they're as docile as it's cousin the ball python but then again I know ball pythons that would bite first and ask questions later but you don't see me labelling ball pythons as an aggressive snake or anyone else for that matter yet I guarantee you that if you have more than 3 or 4 ball pythons there is always that one who "has a bad attitude". So before you label a species with such a black and white temperament I'd do a bit more research.
I was just watching this video a couple days ago as I've been contemplating between a white lipped, Olive or a scrub for a while. But I completely agree with your message. I've heard people say the same about retics, carpets and bloods etc. But find it hard to believe after handling a few
