The very first line of your comment:

> PSA: If a probiotic is on the shelf, not in a cooler, it's probably not worth buying.

is exactly what I was responding to, along with your one word response "Yes" to that applying equally to all bacterial strains, which is also untrue.

The statements below can all be taken as true, together. Probably doesn't not mean always. https://i.imgur.com/BRNn0rJ.png

  If a probiotic is on the shelf, not in a cooler, it's probably not worth buying
  Strains that only survive when refrigerated are maybe probably a higher count
  There are probably strains that are better but can't be freeze dried
  There are absolutely shelf stable probiotics that are worth buying, especially if you don't have access to refrigerated stuff
