I'm finding the use of fungible by several posters in this thread rather confusing. As far as I am aware, fungible means that an item that has been contracted for is able to replace or be replaced by an identical item. I find identical and similar to have rather different meanings.
For instance, I order a 2 litre container of 2% lactose free milk. By the definition of fungible that several posters seem to be using, if I received a 2L container of 1% chocolate milk, that would be considered fungible.
