I know, my sisters in her last year of medical school. And whilst if it was in english or native languages, there may be a greater understanding for many terms, it does prevent any cross language confusion. Due to use you could almost deem e.g. to be an english word and so I see no problem with it, but the latin equivalent, certainly isn't used.
