I don't believe it is either cruel or sadistic to wait until a medical technique is well tested before wanting to apply it to the general public. In some cases, it may be over cautious to have these delays, but often it is necessary to ensure the safety of patients. The decade was not lost, it was put to good use testing the technique and verifying that long-term effects on patients would be positive. Ross, I have to disagree.
