Genetics confusion

[OhhWatALoser]

Yes, I understand what it technically means. But please refer to the part of my post that I bolded. "As applied to ball python morph names"...the term "het" IMPLIES one half of a matched set. So if you say, "het lesser" you're implying that the animal has one half of the set needed to make a lesser.

I'm not disputing that a lesser is a heterozygous mutation. I'm just saying that I don't be assuminga we areare calling themy allele lesserlieve it is accurate to refer to the animal as "het lesser."

Thinking that way causes confusion, why do people assume that het implies anything other than what it actually means? I also find the last part contradicting because your saying you think is inacurate to call it heterozygous lesser, which it is. Assuming we are calling the allele lesser
