Bard Spells with the Divine Focus Component

[EightViolett]

The components for the spell 'Heroe's Feast' are listed as: V, S, DF.
The spell can be cast by Bards and Clerics.
Now, for a Cleric, the Divine Focus Component makes perfect sense, but if my Bard wanted to cast that spell, would they need a Divine Focus too?

Bards are arcane casters, so they never have use for a divine focus. They must have meant to put F/DF or M/DF, as per

If the Components line includes F/DF or M/DF, the arcane version of the spell has a focus component or a material component (the abbreviation before the slash) and the divine version has a divine focus component (the abbreviation after the slash).

Shouldn't matter which one it is, since either way the price is unmentioned and is therefore negligible, which means the focus / material component is in your spell component pouch.

Actually, if the components just list DF, then the Arcane version of the spell has no requirement for a focus or material component. Simples.

Note that this is not that uncommon - take a look at Calm Emotions, Lesser Confusion, Delay Poison or Mad Monkeys.
