The Wikipedia article on Kleiber's Law, at November 24, 2024 included this remark:

Because cell protoplasm appears to have constant density across a range of organism masses, a consequence of Kleiber's law is that, in larger species, less energy is available to each cell volume.

instead suggest that cells in larger species require less energy, due to Galileo differential scaling.

If cellular requirements explain Kleiber's Law, then the assumption that less energy is available to cells explains Kleiber's law cannot be right.
