In Response To: Selection of Backgammon Giants from USA (Marv Porten)

Yes, there is no question that players that have largely dropped out of active play have remained on the list by inertia - by reputation. However, keep in mind that there is one other criteria for the giants list that you neglected to include: "Which players are the most respected and feared by their fellow competitors? ".
