Abstract

Here we explain how C. Tsallis' reply (Entropy 2021, 23(5), 630) fails to respond to points raised in (Entropy 2020, 22(10), 1110) and introduces further inconsistencies on the origin of black hole entropy. In his reply, Tsallis argues that the extensivity of thermodynamical entropy with respect to chosen variables needs to be preserved. Consequently the entropy functional is inadequate for black holes. Here we explain the undesirable consequences of this reasoning on black hole thermodynamics.
