That wasn't the issue at all. What they took issue with was the 'redefining' of T rex vs Giganotosaurus. YOur posts with sauropod size were the main issue of conflict. Not to say the "redefinition" of T.rex vs Giganotosaurus was accurate, though.

Maybe it wasn't a hit, but you and one other person are literally the only 2 people who took issue with the chart. The primary issue seems to be the mass estimate.

and not just the mass issue, the fact you decided to use an immature T.rex with a fully grown giga is even more laughable

I was referring to the Sauroposeidon thing I posted. And my bad, ONE person there did not like the comp. That's it.
As for the other one, a) that's an adult b) there is no data on the maturity of either specimen; they could be subadults for all we know.

Occam's razor tells us they are probably adult. It is safe to assume so.

That's an adult, though not necessarily an old one.
And yes, we have been a priori assuming they were adults. Just thought I'd mention that, however.

And it is therefore an adult.

And it is therefore an adult. No. Just...no. Teenagers as young as 14 are "Sexually mature", but nobody argues that they are adult.

We do know, however, with T rex, that its growth slowed significantly from age 15-18, as is the case with B-rex who had pretty much stopped then.
