In the original story, Snow White is said to have had βskin as white as snow, lips as red as blood

Pretty sure he's trolling. It's impossible to defend a position where the author *literally* described Snow White's appearance and her being named after her appearance..

"And whilst she was sewing and looking out of the window at the snow, she [Queen] pricked her finger with the needle, and three drops of blood fell upon the snow. And the red looked pretty upon the white snow, and she thought to herself, would that I had a child as white as snow, as red as blood, and as black as the wood of the window-frame.
Soon after that she had a little daughter, who was as white as snow, and as red as blood, and her hair was as black as ebony, and she was THEREFORE called little Snow White."
Quote directly from the story although the capitalization is mine. Couldn't be any less ambiguous than that, but your tap dancing is certainly entertaining!

I've never understood this obsession with skin color or shades thereof.
All of humanity originates from Africa, meaning we all have black ancestors and that "black" isn't black either, but a shade of brown.
Look at all the Europeans going on vacation to the beach to get suntan, which literally means they are trying to get their skin as dark brown as possible, look at how many sun studios there are in the western world where you can get your skin darker as it naturally is, all the tanning beds you can buy for home use and then let's start over the discussion which skin color people prefer.
Language has always exaggerated objective facts, in spoken as well as in written words, a bit lighter than brown becomes white, a bit darker than this new definition of white becomes black, Chinese eyes become slits, the eyes of a pretty girl shine like diamonds, a passionate kiss makes a girl see the stars, thick fog becomes you cannot see your own hands before your eyes, etc., etc., but none of any of this matches objective reality.
So what are movie producers supposed to do? Try to match the literal words from a book and use an overload of makeup on an actress to make her skin look literally plain white, or try to match what the actual reality of that exaggeration would look like?
I for one can imagine what literal white would look like in a face and ..... no thanks ..... I don't want to see that as a skin color.

I guess the biggest problem they have is that "white" people back in the times when the book was written were far darker than Europeans are nowadays (unless they sunbath a lot).
So making a movie about a girl that is even in reality supposed to have a lighter skin than any other real person at the time cannot match the reality of what the lightest skin in old times would have looked like, because the lightest possible back then was still darker than the average today and that then raises all the protest from people who do not know better and only see that the girl in the movie has a darker skin than the viewers have themselves.
Furthermore we know what it looks like when skin becomes too light, not only from albinos, because there is a historic exception of people in old times having lighter skin color than anyone nowadays has.
The term "blue blooded" originates from Spanish, English and French nobility, who were staying inside their palaces all their time and getting so little sunlight that their skin became so light, it actually turned transparent and made the veins under the skin appear blue.
I don't think anyone nowadays would find that attractive.
