This is a good thing. People die, and die sooner, when the FDA cannot adapt its approval process to drugs and tools for patients who sadly have little downside to trying them.
In my own little corner (diabetes) it’s been nice to get monitoring tools earlier than they once would have been approved, and for my medical team to confidently plan for equipment changes based on future approvals.
