A century ago, fossil finds had been rare, and the methods used to assess their relations were based as much on guesswork as they did on structural knowledge. These days, however, it is becoming apparent what a wealth of information the fossil record yields, and computer-assisted analyses are used to compare, index and classify fossils, yielding much more accurate results. So while it might be accurate to say that the fossil record *was* "criticized", it certainly is not today.
