No... I haven't forgotten the "extensive" .. ahh "well-supported?" posts
on crocodiles from this past summer. Have you forgotten? Let me remind
you then. Your actual post was:
Indopacific Crocodile (*Crocodylus porosus*)
Habitat: Commonly encountered in marine habitats, the common names
Estuarine or Saltwater Crocodile are, however, misleading since this
species is often found in freshwater habitats such as large rivers and
lakes.

Your post said that the name was misleading. That is what I said in my
original post.
It is interesting that in that lengthy post on predation, and the concept
that there might be habitats that do not include crocodiles you pick this
one little thing to quibble over. I guess this is all you coul come up
with.
Troy.
