[agumonkey]

trivia: you just made me wonder what's the etymology of dinosaur, https://www.etymonline.com/word/dinosaur#etymonline_v_8600 says it's from "deinos "terrible" (see dire)". seems that from start, people in the field had this view of crippled genus

[sirsinsalot → agumonkey]

It means terror inducing, not bad or substandard

[agumonkey → sirsinsalot]

I was wondering, but etymonline had many many pejorative meanings for "dire" so I assumed dinosaurs too. But wikipedia says like you.
