Is a "pork shoulder blade roast" the same as a "Boston butt"?

Yes, but sometimes it's only half a butt (about 4lbs rather than
7-11lbs).

Yeah, that's been my experience. Not that I mind using the small hunk
of shoulder, cooking for at most two--and usually just myself.

They aren't apparently, though I recently said they were synonomous. Here
from the "weber bullet"
http://www.virtualweberbullet.com/me...orkcarcass.pdf. I buy
vac-packed boneless shoulders, or picnics from CostCo for about $1.30/lb.

As usual, you're making no sense. There's nothing on that page that
precludes it from being a pork butt. IT's a portion of a pork butt,
like several of us mentioned. It's still a pork butt.
