    Important for the origins argument as well - if these indels between SC1 and SC2 are natural and in play for variation, then the PRRA insert is natural as well.

    Of course the nefarious supervillain making this virus spent all that time putting those insertions in (from HIV or fish presumably) and all it does is delete them.
