And yet these surgeons who have seen the "full range" as you put it STILL remove the wrong organs, still amputate the wrong limbs, still wrongly prescribe meds with fatal consequences, etc etc etc.
For EXACTLY the same reasons pilots kill people. One, or more safety layers of the system failed and they flat out screwed up. Regardless of their "full range" of experience.
