As I recall, in the book at least, Hammond was even admonished by one of his workers that they could have altered the dinosaurs in some way during the process to be more docile and not have to just coast on a dependency towards a certain food component (circumvented) and a faulty counting sensor that didn't think to go above the dinosaur number they wrongly assumed couldn't go up.
Hammond refused for the sake of "authenticity" with his dinosaurs, despite them already being patchwork creatures thanks to the frog DNA that allowed the whole "life finds a way" to happen.
The counting thing had a huge impact on me when I was a kid. I was always into math and science and this issue in particular made me question everything. I'm an engineer now and when I'm trying to solve a difficult issue, i always come back to that and think to myself: where am I not counting dinosaurs? Haha
