They mention it:

I think the Daughter From California will be perceived and treated the same way by care providers regardless of whether they end up being right, and regardless of their actual vs perceived motivation, so from that perspective I think it still fits.

Doctors are just people - they don't appreciate it when somebody parachutes in to question their work, and they make mistakes like anybody else.

I was this person for my dad's care, heading back to Canada from California after his third ambulance ride to the hospital and subsequent discharge a few hours later. Turns out his first doctor at the ER had correctly identified the life-threatening condition he had developed, and when the shift changed the new physician ignored the handoff instructions and sent him home. If I hadn't pushed to get the ER to look again he would be dead now. I think the syndrome described is real, and enough doctors are bad enough at practicing medicine that it saves lives.

It might be worthwhile to expand a bit in the docs on the problems you see with JS concurrency (why you think it sucks, maybe some examples) and then show how ts-chan fixes those problems.
