Recently a number of papers have claimed that the horizon area - and thus the entropy - of near extremal black holes in anti-de Sitter spacetimes can be reduced by dropping particles into them. In this note we point out that this is a consequence of an underlying assumption that the energy of an infalling particle changes only the internal energy of the black hole, whereas a more physical assumption would be that it changes the enthalpy (mass). In fact, under the latter choice, the second law of extended black hole thermodynamics is no longer violated.
