IOW, even fossil Gorilla such as Lucy fossilized next to crocodiles... :-DDD

What is your argument? It's by no means clear. You do
have it in your skull that crocodiles exclude SOMETHING,
but you don't seem to have any idea what that may be.
I've never claimed that crocs were an issue. You droids
regurgitating the status quo have. Incessantly.
Why are salt water crocs a problem but the much larger
crocs you cite not a problem?
It's a question of risk.
In the 'savanna scenario' hominins would have minimized the time spent
in or at the edge of the water

Not at all. But it would minimized their intake of DHA, when our evolution >required easy access to plentiful DHA.
Your intake of DHA is not much use if shortly thereafter it ends up in
the stomach of a crocodile.

In the 'savanna scenario' hominins would have minimized the time spent
in or at the edge of the water, while in the aquatic scenario they
would not. Therefore the risk of crocodile predation would be much
higher in the latter.
This is rather interesting, from 2009:Does the risk of encountering lions influence African herbivore behaviour at waterholes?
Water locations, like rivers, ponds, lakes, whatever, are
prime places for predators to hunt. Animals have to drink
and take risks to do so.

Which is what I've been saying. The imaginary "Crocs" arguments,
if I may pay it undue respect by even calling it an argument, is that
there are saltwater crocs warming over all the bridges, but none
what so ever in any freshwater source inland.

So you agree with me: The crocs <ahem> "argument" against
Aquatic Ape s utter bullshit. Morons puked it up because they
couldn't come up with any real argument, but their training
forced them to say something...
Wrong. Crocs have ranges in Asia, Africa, and Australia.
