The source says: "The notion that bacteria are primitive, unsophisticated organisms stems from what I would call size chauvinism". I can't find a source that uses "size anthropocentrism" at all (or "size bias" in a relevant way). bd2412 T 16:30, 23 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

How big is something

What is misleading with this phrase? Is "big" being indicated the reference point as concerns largeness? Because smallness can also be a reason for identifying the inexact meaning of "size". Big is not a neutral term. It indicates how much larger is one object to another. That statement is inconsistent if one is searching to distinguish how small is one object from another. It seams the logic involved in the original statement is misconstrued intention. We might as well be using the term "muchness".2605:E000:9149:A600:3832:5234:5BA4:7DB6 (talk) 00:44, 23 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
