MĂĽnzer's theory, he predates the marriage alliance on which the name is contingent. Ogilvie thought "Gnaeus" more likely than "Numerius", thinking that Livy represented an older and more reliable tradition. Costa also preferred "Gnaeus", suggesting that its variant "Naeus" was confused with "Numerius" when the forenames were (as was common) abbreviated. Pinsent, on the other hand, rejected "Gnaeus", which he though is simply a corruption of text in Livy's manuscript, and accepted "Numerius", dismissing the story of the marriage alliance and its association with the name as later fabrications.

MĂĽnzer accepted the essence of the tale as correct, but redated the marriage alliance to the mid-third century BC in order to explain the two families' political successes during the period. By implication then, Fabius
Vibulanus, the consul of 421 BC, was not called "Numerius", since, according to
155:. Additionally drawing upon a gap in the Fasti Capitolini from 414 to 410 BC the censorship can likely be placed within this timeframe, with Suolahti leaning towards the year 410 BC. Suolahti's main suggestions for these unknown censors are

noble named
Numerius Otacilius, in the fifth century BC. This story as a whole is unhistorical since there was no significant contact between Rome and Samnium during that period.
