> Because, there are exactly zero doctors pushed out of the practice of medicine.

This is exactly not true. You might argue too little doctors are pushed out, but you did not. A doctor loosing ability to practice medicine is an actual real world thing.



Yes, and its so rare that it may be deemed not to exist.

Are we arguing about semantics ?


“state medical boards nationwide took away 692 doctors' licenses, or seven per 10,000 physicians, in 2015, the most recent year for which data is available.”

Looks like doctors lose their licenses slightly more frequently than lawyers are disbarred


Opinions may vary, but to me the difference between "so rare that it may be deemed not to exist" and "exactly zero" is not about semantics. (I see "exactly zero" as an absolute statement that therefore precludes such subtleties.)
