@JeremyECrawford Interesting point in Dragon Talk today, you mentioned the "natural melee weapon" language of the minotaur's horns means it works with Divine Smite (and magic weapon?).
That seems at odds with previous answers regarding bite attacks. Is this a revision?

Or are PC minotaur horns/centaur hooves somehow mechanically different from a monster minotaur's horns/monster centaur's hooves?

That was part of a discussion about the magic weapon spell. I stated that it was meant to be cast on weapons that are objects, but that casting it on natural weapons would break nothing.

Gotcha. So paladins can smite with whatever natural weapons by intent, and magic weapon at DM’s discretion? That's right!
