I don't remember all of those but I can discuss some of them.
So a lot of stuff came in and never proved genetic, either incomplete dominant or recessive. Also, with some of the pattern mutations, "classic jungle" and I'm guessing labyrinth too, they were "one offs". Not genetic or they came from incubation/temperature complications.
Faded albino would just be a faded albino. The faded part never was inheritable as recessive/incomplete dominant. It would be polygenic. So if you took two ball pythons with a slightly faded colour to them some of their babies would carry a copy of each parents "faded" gene and thus look more faded then either one. It goes down the line. It's like breeding for high blushing.
Morphs that have a niche market or for the most fallen by the wayside are:
Deserts
Caramel Albino
Chocolate
Sable
Green/peach/extreme ghost
Genetic stripe
Disco
Vanilla
Mocha
Genetic black back
genetic banded
Red Axanthic
Citrus pastel
Whiteout pastel/Ruppel pastel
Spark
Hybrid Mode
