For me the biggest plot hole of the popular penicillin discovery myth is clearly the open window story, including its multiple side plots with meteorological events.
And that that story exists and has PREVAILED despite the fact that everyone knows that the same building was housing a mycology laboratory only a flight of stairs away, and that it was the mycology colleague La Touche who identified the penicillin.
