This advice is inadequate and impractical. Most people don't have access to doctors who spend enough time on them to really get to the bottom of all issues.

In most countries, there are simply too many patients per doctor, meaning it's a conveyor belt of "good enough" 5 minute appointments.

People will turn to other modes of discussing and analyzing their problems if they go to professionals repeatedly and the problem still isn't solved. Just telling them not to do so or to ignore 100% of it isn't going to solve that.

Seems like a big statement. Why is it not realistic? People are already doing it manually by having one LLM fact check output from another.
