Also I am assuming you got your info on wikipedia, while it does say that theropods could not pronate thier hands that is a broad statement which needs further investigation on multiple species and groups before you say something like that. That said, spinos arms are too thin. As for use, they are quite elongated and well articulated, which suggests they could be used for gripping. Too short to hold fish while it eats but too elaborate to just be used in mating (see Tyrranosauruses hands to see why)  Perhaps it used them to hold onto larger prey (like smaller dinosaurs) while it's head went to work.

All this reminds me that this mod's dinos needs a resting animation while idle (ie whenever they are not trying to kill you) I would do it if I could code, but until then it's  a wait and see game.
