The only way to protect yourself from the majority of malpractice lawsuits is to have a rigorous standard of performance, and it also helps to have the approval of the centralized authority that also controls the medical laws. Far from a measure of the system's inherent worth, it's the only system established enough enough to allow doctors in training to have the 10 years of rigorous experience before even touching a patient by themselves. The risk to patient livelihood from a major systemic change done wrong is simply unconscionable compared to the average programming mistake "oh the software failed due to bugs, just change the code and try again and do better next time". Its pretty much impossible to fund and test an alternate training system that takes nearly a decade to produce a determinable result, and multiple decades to prove consistent results.
It's not that it's better, it's kind of the only way to build trust with patients.
