Nice effort, and its something. But something may not be good enough to solve hard problems.

Can simulated hospital simulate efforts by staff to quickly add into many charts a medication Rx - by taking one patient note and copying 1 note, then pasting that into several?

Does it simulate staff forgetting the dosage was not edited after pasting into all those charts ?

Or staff not logging out of their userID, to avoid the need to log in every time someone needs to add a note/document into a chart? So that , in fact, the doc added by Dr Smith, was actually done by his assistant Tully?

Life is complicated. People use systems in wild and unexpected ways.

Real solutions require real data.

What CPOE system involves notes? None of the handful I've used in the US.

No modern EMR here involves any copy pasting for orders.

In your view, what was the purpose of your comment? Who are you lecturing?

To warn developers of potential blind spots and wasting time, hoping this helps them contribute meaningfully to fix healthcate

Presumably you could try to simulate these kinds of mistakes.
