Does the Hinterlands die add purple cubes when the space already has purple, and do outbreaks spread purple?

Yes for die rolls: Mutation cubes (which include Superbug cubes) count for Hinterlands die infections, so a purple cube is added when the space already has purple. No for outbreaks: they add only cubes of the outbreak colour to connected cities. The designer offered the 'Mutation cubes means all Mutation cubes' reading as errata.
