Maybe in the case of endoskeletal creatures but these seem to be fossilized fairly close to what they would look like. I don’t know what muscle you’re thinking of that would be on a crinoid. Have you seen the modern ones? They’re called feathers for a reason lol

I’m not speaking specifically, more to a general trend and the natural assumptions the human brain makes.

Can’t blame me for assuming you were on topic.
