I am being told by other people that if you are approved for Nexus, you have Global Entry, regardless of point of entry to this country. They're saying you can spend LESS money and still get ALL of the Global Entry benefits with Nexus. I thought Nexus was a dedicated program between Canada and the US.

If someone could please help me out here, I'd be much obliged.
It's been extensively discussed in the Global Entry vs NEXUS thread (which, BTW, is only 12 pages long ):
