Mais um aspecto do não-mensurável, não-medido, não-dito? O universal se contrapõe ao particular. Seria a hora de prestarmos mais atenção ao singular, que está fora desse eixo, como pensou um médico-filósofo? Segue o texto do psiquiatra Michael W. Kahn.

“Etiquette-based medicine would prioritize behavior over feeling. It would stress practice and mastery over character development. It would put professionalism and patient satisfaction at the center of the clinical encounter and bring back some of the elements of ritual that have always been an important part of the healing professions. We should continue our efforts to develop compassionate physicians, but let’s not overlook the possibly more immediate benefits of emphasizing good behavior.”
