I find it interesting that Horizon claims that their infant formula is
"completely adequate to support normal infant growth" compared to breast
milk when the study shows that this product actuallly produces LARGER
infants than breastfed infants. If breastfed babies are the norm then how
can they conclude  that their product "supports normal infant growth"?
Shouldn't they say instead that their product results in "larger than
normal" infants?

They sound as though they are playing into parents' misinformed hopes for
"bigger = better and healthier" babies.
