It shows that this dino is even deadlier hence ups the ante.
No. It alienates the audience by killing off the franchise icon and replacing it with a giant slasher villain.
All of the dinosaurs in the other entries in the series at least act like animals. The Spino has no actual character to it. It's just a massive monster that chases the characters throughout the island.
In the first film, the Rex's actions in the film feel like animal behavior. It breaks free and examines and explores the cars. In The Lost World it is made explicit throughout the film why the Rex's are acting the way they are. In JW, the actions of the I-Rex are explained throughout as well.
In JPIIIthe Spino is justattacking. -

Here here. People clown on the
spinosaurus aegyptiacus
because of it's antics, but the
indominus rex
was a squarely over-the-top B-movie monster.
It is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing

Nope, bad argument. It wasn't really until World that the idea that they weren't actually dinosaurs was entertained. Obviously scientists are making more discoveries and coming up with new theories. For all intents and purposes Hammond was trying to recreate dinosaurs.

Mmmm nope. It was actually in the original novel. It was also spoken of in JP3. So like I saidnext. -

Well for those who have not read the novel then they were for all intent and purposes dinosaurs. It is touched on slightly in 3 but you bash this film so don't dip into the content to save your argument.

Having a tiny bit of West African frog DNA to fill in some gene sequence gaps is a necessary evil.
Throwing together various bits of DNA from multiple species in an attempt to make something "cool" is just plain excess.
