AB  - One of the main expected responses of marine fishes to ocean warming is decrease 
      in body size, as supported by evidence from empirical data and theoretical 
      modeling. The theoretical underpinning for fish shrinking is that the oxygen 
      supply to large fish size cannot be met by their gills, whose surface area cannot 
      keep up with the oxygen demand by their three-dimensional bodies. However, 
      Lefevre et al. (Global Change Biology, 2017, 23, 3449-3459) argue against such 
      theory. Here, we re-assert, with the Gill-Oxygen Limitation Theory (GOLT), that 
      gills, which must retain the properties of open surfaces because their growth, 
      even while hyperallometric, cannot keep up with the demand of growing 
      three-dimensional bodies. Also, we show that a wide range of biological features 
      of fish and other water-breathing organisms can be understood when gill area 
      limitation is used as an explanation. We also note that an alternative to GOLT, 
      offering a more parsimonious explanation for these features of water-breathers 
      has not been proposed. Available empirical evidence corroborates predictions of 
      decrease in body sizes under ocean warming based on GOLT, with the magnitude of 
      the predicted change increases when using more species-specific parameter values 
      of metabolic scaling.
