> These guys aren't doctors because they don't fix anything. They just study it to use it the best way to accomplish their goal.
By that logic, most doctors aren't doctors. The primary job performed by many medical professionals is simply that of convincing the patient to leave the office happier than when they came in, actual medical practice be damned. They "just study" the superficial aesthetics of medicine to "accomplish their goal" of making money and maintaining status (and of course, less cynically, making other people happy).
At the end of the day, these are all silly word games. Titles are meaningless in the search for truth. They exist only to flatter us as the infinitely fallible humans we like to be, and there isn't any point in picking fights over them.
