The actual bottleneck today is with residency spots. With that knowledge, it's really for the best that medical school enrollment is limited. The situation law schools find themselves in is not an enviable one. I don't think it would be good for anyone to send students to medical school, make them suffer and struggle for four years (doubly so because they weren't as strong students to begin with), ask them to take on hundreds of thousands of dollars of debt, and then say, "oh, you can't practice medicine because we just don't have enough residencies anymore."
