I want to stress again that I'm not implying anything, I'm talking about common situations that may reasonably happen which would offer a logical explanation in place of a hypothesis that isn't based on fact or common practices about a hidden malicious agenda.

Tin foil hat moment though if you like, but if they did use it to cut costs and make the product, or other inferior products illegally that could lead to cross contamination, would you necessarily be aware that that's the case?
