    I’d argue that most wild microbes are not as bad as domestic microbes with all their antibiotic resistance development.

      Honestly, I’d just rather not have any except ones I’m working on. Sterility requirements bring in a lot of headaches.

      A decent lab requires several intermediate clean zones and several layers of sterile coats, plus if anything opens outside the flow cabinet, it’s as good as empty, except now you also get to manage the contamination of the surroundings.

      And some molds are REALLY sturdy.
