  How much physics should a doctor know? Do you not agree that there is value in a well-rounded liberal education before specialization?

    None? I really, really don't care if the guy operating on my appendix can calculate torque. I care that he knows a lot about appendixes and has a steady hand.

    Is it worth ~50 billion per year for doctors to be well rounded? I am gong to say No.
