>No medical care? You could have a surgeon invent an implement to pull an arrow out of your skull and save your life, just because you are important enough for that.

...and die 2 weeks later from an infection because antibiotics haven't been discovered yet

>Only food in season? You could pay people to bring you food from other places far away lands no one has ever seen in such seasons.

The lack of air freight means even if you can send some guy to get it, by the time it arrives it'll be rotten.
