You seem to be confused. The AMA doesn't control physician licensing. That's done by state medical boards.

But are you suggesting we have separate licenses for every different type of developer? We have new types coming up every few years.

The whole idea of guilds for developers is just stupid and impractical. It could never work on any long term or large scale basis.

Good catch on the AMA. I should have said medical licensing boards.

I didn’t suggest that at all and I honestly can’t figure out how you came to that interpretation unless you are hallucinating.

What a convincing argument! You should get a cabinet post.
