Actually I was under the impression that the questions remain the same but
that we invent new answers on a continuous basis.

Beverly Erlebacher's new definition of a weed as anything that is killed by
a weedkiller.

I'll let Sean defend himself, although I like several cheeses that have fungi
involved in their production, and there seems to be a lot of cheese around
that was curdled with vegetable rennet, or has plant parts in it (seeds,
fruits, leaves, etc). Not to mention the tofu 'cheese' that is around too.

Beverly Erlebacher's new definition of a weed as anything that is killed by

Not my definition. Read the label of your favorite lawn weedkiller, which
will list clover as one of the weeds killed by it. After all, they don't
list tomatoes and roses, do they?

I think you may have to determine that experimentally, but it might be more
effective to use a pesticide.

That was part of a discussion about things that eat fungal hyphae. Lots of them
on a good Brie.

Actually the discussion was on fungi forming a 'vegetation' that was grazed
by passing animals. See:
AFAIK, Fungi themselves are not eaten by animals. Some of the fruiting
bodies are eaten, but not like plants would be, as part of the general
vegetation ("grazed"). Fruiting bodies are sought out as delicacies.
