It is not. Having a system in which the vapid followers of the celebritards and their emotive switches govern the outcome of issues involving matters of science that are beyond their ken is rather odd.

Do you have a study? Or are you basing it on some statistics that doctors win 75% of the time. Do you know for sure if everyone of these 75% of cases where the doctor wins involve heartbreaking stuff? It’s amazing 3 out of 4 juries are able to withstand such heartbreaking stuff.
