I think you're right but for different reasons. Over the past few years, we've seen the toxicity that can come from the management of healthcare companies like they are the same as software companies. The easy example here is Theranos, which was engaged in fragrant fraud until it was uncovered by the WSJ. The company focused its time and resources on the design and aesthetic, but was from a scientific perspective, 100% BS.
That says to me that if you don't take an aggressive regulatory supervision of the healthcare market, (literal) snake oil salesmen will come in and promise the world. It's one thing to let juicero fail because there's no critical health concern that happens when the product ultimately fails. When it's a device or service that impacts patient care, we have a moral obligation to ensure we are doing best to ensure we are positively impacting care.
