I'd like them to follow the legally required prompt instructing them to test for/treat as sepsis, rather than ignoring it but falsely asserting they followed it, so they can rule that out instead of guessing about what "likely" happened.
You can hand-wave all you want about how medicine is complicated, but a doctor checking a box for something they didn't do is objectively incorrect in my eyes, regardless of what "might have happened" had they done their job correctly. All of the discussion in this thread blaming the design of the checklist that the doctors didn't follow anyway is insane to me.
What I meant by "legally required prompt" was that others in the thread have tried to explain the "poor UX of the pop-up" by saying that it's probably required to display for legal reasons (whether directly, or to avoid liability). Regardless of that, checking an item off that you didn't perform is still logically incorrect whether it's illegal or not.
