    The headline is incredibly misleading. “Doctors couldn’t operate on my tumor” is patently false when a doctor DID operate on the tumor USING the robot. It’s deliberately stealing credit from the doctor and giving it to their tool. It’s the headline that’s nonsensical.

      I agree. But at this point in time I’m judging anybody who hasn’t yet learned to ignore the headline and read the article

        Fair enough. But it’s still valuable to express annoyance at the headline itself, which is problematic as hell.
