"Rare meteorites common in the Ordovician period"

Ordovician meteorite hunters must have been brachiopods (Team Brachinite).  

Do the authors understand or speculate how different the absolute "flux" was for achondrites, for anyone reading this?

In other words, are the ordinary chondrites just less common 467 mya making this a better title:

"Common meteorites rare in the Ordovician period"
"
Big difference ... Otherwise the hypothesis is sensible ... that through the ages the relative frequency of meteorite types goes up and down depending on the latest collisions and shipping lanes ...

Cheers
Doug
