  Although BCS pairs of fermions are known not to obey Bose-Einstein (BE)
commutation relations nor BE statistics, we show how Cooper pairs (CPs),
whether the simple original ones or the CPs recently generalized in a many-body
Bethe-Salpeter approach, being clearly distinct from BCS pairs at least obey BE
statistics. Hence, contrary to widespread popular belief, CPs can undergo BE
condensation to account for superconductivity if charged, as well as for
neutral-atom fermion superfluidity where CPs, but uncharged, are also expected
to form.
