Now if someone says genetic reduced or blackback then that changes the impression to say yes this is a proven trait.

Like any trait there are variations. I have seen pastels (that I know are genetic) that are so dirty in color that an untrained eye might mistake them for a normal. So judgement always come into play when making a purchase.

I would say yeah you can call that a black back. How nice of one is up to personal opinion. Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder.
The perfect response....
