I don't like the new Spinosaurus reconstruction. If it were true, I could live with it, but I don't like it because it doesn't seem realistic. Most carnivorous theropods walked bipedally at least 85% of the time, and it doesn't seem like evolution would go

HERP DERP LET'S MAKE THIS DINOSAUR QUADRUPEDAL BUT NOT MAKE LATER THEROPODS QUADRUPEDAL

Because Spinosaurus evolved during Early Cretaceous, if it really did walk on all fours and that was a successful evolution that would have carried over to some later theropods, regardless of diet. If it wasn't a successful evolution, it would have devolved back to a bipedal stance, don't you think?
