This is the same fanbase that overanalysed Scott's fangs throughout s5. Had they zoomed in on the paw print, we would still be having this conversation. 1st point: Okay.

2nd point: that example is unrelated. You were saying that if they didn't over-exaggerate the paw print size, people would have thought that Sebastien was just drinking from muddy water. Zooming into a normal size foot print solves this problem and guides people towards "normal wolf" (normal paw print + "wolf" = normal wolf). A huge paw print suggests the contrary.

Also, I say the show should have been specific about the "wolf" part anyways. Then there would be no speculation. Given that Alphas are the types of werewolves that make other werewolves, I think it's fair for one to speculate that the paw print is from an Alpha, if the show was vague about it.
