But what the word "leviathan" means doesn't matter. It's what the game actually says about the Leviathan of Dis that matters. And the game (i.e. canon info, i.e. the only thing that matters here) supports the idea that the Leviathan of Dis is no larger than, and likely smaller than, a dreadnought. It was, after all, removed from the planet it was on by a batarian dreadnought. And we've never heard of dreadnoughts being able to enter atmospheres or land on planets, so it likely had to be taken from the planet to the dreadnought by shuttles or other small ships. Also consider that, while "leviathan" does indeed refer to a beast of gigantic proportions, what is it gigantic in proportion to? After all, the Normandy SR-2 is gigantic in proportion to a human. The Leviathan, being a living being, could very well have been compared to other living beings, i.e. the researchers who found it. even if it were only frigate-sized, it'd be gigantic in proportion to them.

Am I an idiot? The jury is still out on that one. But even if I am, I'm at least an idiot who is able to read and comprehend simple data when it's placed in front of me. And the facts do not support the claim that the Leviathan is "bigger than any dreadnought". In fact, nothing supports that claim other than the imaginings of one (or possibly now two) individuals. I'll ask you in the future to disagree with people without resorting to name-calling, which is of course a violation of site policy.
