That is just more evidence that they are right about everything.

Should the difference between sharp teeth (cutting) and fangs (impaling) be their size relative to the creature (or its mouth), absolute size, shape, some combination of those, or something else entirely?
Smilodon is explicitly called out as an example of something that has fangs, even though its two big teeth are much flatter and more blade-like than those of normal cats and dogs. So it doesn't seem to be a matter of just being very pointy.
In Lands Out of Time, Allosaurus and other large therapods get fangs while small ones get sharp teeth. That implies absolute size might be a factor, but the larger therapods did tend to have longer teeth relative to their overall size, so it isn't conclusive. In the same book Dinichthys (which had narrow pseudo-teeth at the front of its mouth, maybe 2 inches long) gets fangs while Megalodon (mouth full of broad triangular teeth up to 5 inches long) has sharp teeth, which suggests that shape, size relative to the animal, or even variance in tooth size (i.e. a couple of protruding teeth are fangs, while a load of similar teeth are sharp teeth) may be a factor.
All the carnivorans in the basic set get sharp teeth, but the rattlesnake has fangs (despite these being considerably smaller than those of a lion or bear).
Vampiric bite comes with sharp teeth (or beak), not fangs, which could indicate that a classic vampire's protruding canines are not enough to qualify for fangs, but it isn't like there's a terribly consistent image of how long vampire teeth get.
In Horror, Ancient Ones, Oni, Serpent-Folk, and Sea Serpents get fangs. Vampire Lords, Ghouls, Were-Bears, -Cats, and -Wolves in beast form, Wolf-Men, Man-Eating Lions and Sharks, Giant Apes, Romantic Vampires, Wendigo, Unseelie, Devil-Beasts, Ngojama, and Marauds all get sharp teeth. Gill-Men weirdly don't get either. I don't think that really adds much information, as most of them are either too vague or just reiterate what we see elsewhere.
