The 20 foot heavy ass tail that offsets the air sacs used to hold up the torso. And also it doesn’t make sense for animals that use their mouth to eat and hunt to be able to bend over and grab something off the ground while being that top heavy
>oh but birds-
Birds also don’t weigh 8 tons.

Why do heavier terrestrial dinosaurs need to be exactly like modern birds that came after.
