Schneider et al. (Science, 2018) used an ad hoc statistical method in their calculation of the stellar initial mass function. Adopting an improved approach, we reanalyse their data and determine a power law exponent of 2.05_(-0.14)^(+0.13). Alternative assumptions regarding data set completeness and the star formation history model can shift the inferred exponent to 2.11_(-0.19)^(+0.17) and 2.15_(-0.13)^(+0.13), respectively.
