Exactly. Centimetre long fangs as bad as a bumblebee? Yeah... nah
Never mind centimetre long fangs, what about an LP's fangs, they can be an inch long and 1/4" wide at the base, sod that for a game of soldiers. Imagine getting tagged by one of these guys, haha no thanks!
Not to mention the sp. that hit and hit and hit again, you would have to be some kind of fool to allow yourself to get into that predicament.

T. blondi can have inch 1.5 long fangs but people still say that their bite is no worse than wasp sting,yes sure.

It's the mechanical damage that has the greatest impact when discussing sp. with very mild venom.
