I will push back a little bit, because I'm curious to see if anyone has a good argument for why I'm wrong on this.
I would say that it's the equivalent of having the HR person mail their computer in, swapping out the motherboard, and mailing it back. This is, from my experience, what most IT departments actually do in this sort of situation. Maybe I'm wrong. I'm not an IT guy.
The surgeons proposed to directly fix the problem. I don't see a good alternative proposal for their team to make, given imperfect information about every patient.
What is a plausible mechanism for a real-world physician to intricately investigate every moment of every patient's personal life to get to the elemental root cause of every single illness? Someone would have to follow them around 24/7 with a video camera.
