I think it's a matter of the 'tradinionalist' mindset in doctor education

most doctors will think "well, I went through a hardcore intesnse experience in medical school, therefore that's how it should be"

I'm saying they've normalized overwork as part of their specific subculture of modern medical professionals. they really believe they won't be as good doctors without this arguably abusive overwork system

it's yet another group of people who all belive in some form of the "no pain, no gain" mindset; the issue is these groups don't give nobody anything unless there's some harm or pain involved
