#1: "I would think 40% of mothers would still be giving pathogenic bacteria, one way or another, via normal birth."

Babies born the natural way get some of their mother's poop on them. It helps establish a good biome along with the mother's colostrum, her first breast milk produced for a day or two after birth. Studies have found that babies deprived of either of these have a statistically higher chance of developing autism.

Mother's poop has been ok for babies since the dawn of mankind.

Very interesting. That never occurred to me - either the proximal deposition of a bit of fecal material on the newborn or that it was good for the newborn. That is amazing.
