This argument was criticized on several grounds and is no longer taken seriously (the following list of criticisms is far from exhaustive): Estimates of dinosaur weights vary widely, and even a small variation can make a large difference to the calculated predator–prey ratio.
Ovaj argument je na više polja bio kritiziran i više se ne uzima ozbiljno (sljedeća lista kritika je daleko od iscrpne): Procjene o težini dinosaura mnogo variraju, a čak i malena varijacija može napraviti veliku razliku u izračunatoj stopi grabežljivaca i plijena.
