That’s Silicon Valley speak. People with actual experience on how something works and have practical ideas on how to make it better as passed over by people with better PR agencies.

This is a low-effort and mostly irrelevant argument. Who isn't invested in the status quo? Everyone has a stake in their current profession. What sets apart those in healthcare, especially someone like a surgeon, is their concurrent passion for science/biology and their desire to heal others.

IMO, the parent comment was simply remarking that those with EXPERIENCE in the field have a very different set of memories/recollections about healthcare, not to mention a lot of domain-specific knowledge, that those outside do not have. Those of us who have worked in healthcare for years, as I have, have a MUCH more intimate understanding of its vast complexities than a lay-person could. I think that's entirely reasonable and your comment assigns a negative connotation to people who are largely doing noble and important work.
