Even when everything is going well, ^this is still a reason for The Medical System to miss a lot of things.

It's full of people, and things can happen in an unavoidable rush with no prior context. It's not possible to have enough context and act quickly enough in many cases, regardless of intentions or money. So people do what people do: learn from past experiences where the effort/success line lies, and sometimes over-fit for the next case.

Personal attention is needed to adjust that line. Better tooling for personal attention does a lot to make that more possible. I do wish legitimate attention were easier to distinguish from hypochondria, and more doctors were willing to listen, but it's full of people - any pattern you can come up with will be wrong in both directions.

I dunno if LLMs are the current best option or not (they do have a huge benefit of understanding vague phrasing though), but I am definitely in favor of more tools. It has almost always led to better outcomes.
