Could that mean that the genes for resistance to antibiotics were always there?

If was say that it was, then we can't blame it on people for using antibiotics, so no.

I think the suggestion is that there are natural antibiotics out there that have caused resistance in these bacteria. This is a good thing because it means that we can “discover” more naturally occurring antibiotics that may be beneficial.

If true it means they will be weaponized in short order. There are just too many people, they are giving Al’s planet a fever.
