A rebuttal is given to a criticism of an approximate method for the determination of the distribution of energy barrier heights in liquids and proteins. It is argued that the one‐dimensional counterexample used in the critique violates clearly stated assumptions in the derivation, which also appear to hold in nature. The method is shown to be accurate in a more appropriate one‐dimensional test.
