I think I phrased myself poorly in my original post As mentioned in another post, current antibiotics are already produced by organisms in nature, which has made bacteria more likely to develop resistance to those antibiotics over time It's a reasonable assumption, that bacteria has evolved to be more capable of developing resistance, since having the ability for a resistance gene to a specific antibiotic to develop every X generations would provide a competitive advantage This same pressure does not exist for the class of antibiotics presented in the article, so there has been no evolutionary pressure to select for genes that could potentially develop into a mechanism for resistance
