I was always under the impression the heroin was originally created for the purpose of being an alternative cough suppressent to morphine.
And even without the above, it is already known that both heroin and codeine are cough suppressents so this I don't see why this "proof" made into the popular media.
It's a bit obvious... But they mention this, but no one had actually done the good research on it to show exactly what we already knew ;)
