albinism is a disease. It comes with a price far greater than just eye and skin problems. Albino reptiles develop slower than normals so when there is a mixed litter of albino and normal appearing offspring, the normals when ready to come out do so and drag along anything else with it. This is likely the key to the enormous amount of premature albino births from livebearing animals. I don't believe it's ethical to breed for any trait that IS a disease or otherwise comes with ANY health concerns.
