Yeah, obviously with a more recent body it's better - and to be honest, I'm hedging rather; used properly it works great. The study I mentioned did show a good level of accuracy overall, it's more that one can't actually look at the bones and know for sure who an individual was - though one certainly can learn a lot, from a whole range of different sorts of markers and wear and tear.

But basically, in this case, my point is: some ladies do have butch skeletons, etc, and I think some people do wonderful accurate work and some people... don't, alas, so one should, as with everything else, not always take a report 100% at face value.
