Really? Why do we have to write dissertations? Medical Docters don't!

As I sit here going through data attempting to emerse myself in it and it's patterns. I wonder why MDs can do a heart transplant without a dissertation? Why do lawyers practice law without a dissertation? Finally, why can a president run the country without a dissertation? It makes me think it's not that big a deal. No one is going to read it anyway, wait other poor soul writting dissertations will. Lol! Well that's my random thought, but at the sametime a real question. What is the real value of a dissertation? I all ready the reasons academics use to make them useful. Would our energy and brainpower be better suited doing something more practical to prove our intelligence/perserverance?
