no, the regular pied-line would still be recessive because the heterozygous pied is not visible. But Leopard (if all we assume about the super form is true) is codominant. And leopard and pied are on the same chromosome / locus. So the genes are part of the same gene complex, a super leopard pied is impossible, a homozygous pied with an additional leopard is impossible, you can only have super leopard, or leopard het pied (1 of each gene), or pied (2x pied gene), and all 3 forms are visible pieds.

so we have 1 recessive gene where the homozygous form is the pied, and 1 codominant gene where the homozygous form is also a pied, but in this case also a super leopard.
