This is super true with electronic too - heavily distorted samples, unidentifiable l/random sounds like chair scraping across the ground, one of my fave song is in Spanish and it doesn’t matter - the overarching composition of the song, coming together in a connected, sometimes sprawling, way. Really it’s true for all instrumental music, but in a lot of electronic music I listen to human voice is used as a sound that’s not meant to be directly parsed.
That said, I also appreciate complex and meaningful lyrics in a different way, as an additional layer in some music, but not necessary. I also don’t think someone needs to be a classically good singer to be good. Some genres have people sing flat or off key and that’s what actually works for the music.

It is better for reducing the risk of infection when wounds bleed like that, but key word is reducing, bacteria can still be stuck at the edges of the wound with blood flowing past them, tiny pieces of dirt or rust can get stuck in the tissues if the wound is deep, and it is just not a 100% guarantee at all. It also definitely should be considered in the context of the treatment - a very safe, single vaccination, with good long term efficacy, ~10 years. It’s not like a risky invasive surgery or anything, just seems very strange not to suggest it. If you had got it in the more recent past maybe she was just reassuring you?
