OP here — wow, did not expect this much response! Thank you all for the thoughtful replies on So the drug literally.

I know it is not exactly on-topic but it seems related enough to ask here rather than starting a new thread. Apologies if this has been covered — I did search first.
+1 to Dr.PulmRoch. Especially the point about "Thank you all for the thoughtful replies..." — I have seen the same in my own experience with So the drug literally.
