> For me better all the x variables (collectively), to have m% missing

I checked the mgcv documentation.
Observations with (any) missing values are ignored.
(i.e. The entire row, from your input data).
"If there are missing values in the reponse or covariates of a GAM then the
default is simply to use only the ‘complete cases’."
I haven't checked the ISLR package.
