Its literally the opposite.

If you have them fund their own spots, there would be potentially unlimited spots.

The limit is caused by the boogeyman of not getting government funding, not that people can't afford the temporary debt.

There was some stat that 1 in 4 qualified people become doctors. The problem is not supply. The problem is the cartel legally reducing supply to prop up wages.
