This is not the poster is pointing out.

It's basically two booleans that don't go together

Is the mountains older than the dinosaurs = false

Is the mountains older than bones = true

They should both be true, but the writer had the first be false, hence leading to all dinosaurs being boneless. I guess it's a colloquialism in the English language, otherwise all y'all wouldn't had downvote the poster for being pedantic
