One point I added to Bob's great post - that I'm not sure has been mentioned previously - a SARS-like CoV that isable to cause a human pandemic _is much more likely_ to have a FCS than a non-pandemic SARS-like CoV.https://virological.org/t/naturally-occurring-indels-in-multiple-coronavirus-spikes/560/2
