Logic would say it’s cheaper. Reality would say it depends on the alloy and size.

I don’t think the government is concerned about the cost of minting. Coins generally all cost more than the face value and notes wayyyyyy less.

The amount of currency that the government creates minus the cost is called the seigniorage amount.

Absolutely. Couldn’t be more happy that this type of thing is happening. But it doesn’t negate the fact that eventually the herds genetic diversity will need to be bolstered by outbreeding, which in this case is very possible.

Had to do a bit of digging to answer this. Scientifically, the general understanding is that antibiotics refers to anti-bacterial molecules. Although search the phrase “antibiotic antifungal” and you’ll see that isn’t even fully agreed in the scientific community.

However the lay definition - Oxford English Dictionary definition, and not by chance (I’m guessing) the first result when googling - is that antibiotic is acting against any microorganism.

This is how that article has ended up using the wrong sounding phrase “antibiotic antifungal”. Which suggests that “antibiotic antibacterial” is what they would use for true antibiotics.
