How would you even measure the improvement of mental health objectively? You can’t just measure some levels of neurotransmitters and say “okay this is better, dopamine went from X to Y” because the patient may not feel any better.
It’s not like with a broken bone where you can look at an image of the bone and see that it has healed, you have to rely on what a person tells you, which is inherently subjective, and since a person can’t be cloned, you can’t have a “control” either.
