I agree with what he said, minus the holier-than-thou tone and rudeness lol.

I wouldnt cross of bloods bc ive heard of plenty that are tame. The only reason i would say no to any type of retics is bc of their aggressive feeding responses. (Im fairly certain most retics have it). Retics of all sizes are very handeable once out of the cage but can be cage aggressive.
Do you keep retics and have extensive hands on time with the species? I have a couple retics that have very low feeding responses. As for cage aggression, it depends what you deem as cage aggression. Frankly, I hook train all my snakes, tap them a couple times with the hook to let them know it's time to come out. It's an amazing practice that if used would eliminate so many bites in the hobby. Can I reach into any of my retics enclosures without tapping them first? Yep. Will I get bitten? Probably not. Do I chance it or would I chance it with any snake regardless of size? No. Why risk injury to yourself and the snake that isn't needed.
