Plamondon & Alimi propose a universal account of trajectory formation and speed/accuracy trade-off in rapid movements but fail, because: (1) the kinematic model ignores the more fundamental dynamics of movement generation, and (2) it does not capture the essential space-time constraints of movement accuracy. Hence, the modeling lacks a biologically and behaviorally principled foundation and is driven by pragmatic function fitting.

Latash & Anson propose that so-called abnormal movements may be stable and adaptive coordination and control solutions to task goals in action. Their interpretation of this established viewpoint is confused throughout in the persistent crossing of frames of reference, both in the description of movement and action and the proposed theory for motor control.
