What is unrealistic about the domino fault model?
What will be an ideal response?
Answer: It predicts constant fault displacement along faults (we know that displacement varies along most faults), it leaves no room for small-scale faults (natural fault populations always show a distribution in fault sizes with more small than large faults), domino faults have equal offset and form and grow simultaneously (possible, but in general not what is observed in real rift systems).
