> No physician (nor individual) should ever be making a diagnosis or treatment decision based on a single line of evidence.

Talking in absolutes like this doesn't help the rest of your point. There are plenty of situations where a single result is sufficient to trigger a whirlwind of treatment decisions.

> More importantly, such results can help offer hard evidence to pressure one's physician to investigate a particular complaint, which can be difficult to convey or to convince the physician it's real. Physicians are often dismissive of things that they do not understand, or of certain classes of patients

If you've ever been sitting on the other side of a consult you would recognize that this statement isn't all that accurate of a characterization. As much as people like to believe they are outsmarting navel-gazing doctors, the reality is that with sufficient time and adequate resources most of these "complex issues" can be diagnosed and treated. The problem lies in that most providers have a 15 minute window to determine if the patient is part of the boring 80%, or if the patient's problem will require time you don't have. Until provider shortages are solved, that will be how it works in order to do the most good on the whole. Berating and pressuring them will just contribute to the burnout that in turn contributes to shortages. The source of the problem is above them.
