I didn’t say it was, Don’t you even bother to read posts before replying?

The article said this after four paragraphs discussing “Lucy”:

“And now we can say that the foot, too, joins these other anatomical regions in pointing towards a fundamentally human-like form of locomotion in this ancient human ancestor.”

In brief, the speaker is saying the bone would be typical to the “Lucy” form.

As I pointed out the “Lucy” skeleton is without feet, etc.

Yes, I do read them but when the poster can´t differentiate between when an article is discussing Lucy (the indivudual fossilized remains) and Lucy (as applied generically to the species), it gets kinda difficult.
