That kemper was insinuating that you advocate starvation. Ithink he's saying, simply that by feeding them in the manner you described, their growth doesn not stop. It simply slows down. If maintained in a healthy way (and this allows for standard-sparse feeding schedules) given a long enough time line these animals WILL eventually fufull their size potential.

Obviously starvation is not proper husbandry, but a sparse feeding schedule for adults can be. BUT they WILL still grow however slowly, to meet their size potential.
