That's because it rarely actually matters.
And it is rarely actually specifiable.
There's a four-stage grouping of "diagnostic certainty" in
German GP research lore:
'A': _('A: Sign'),
'B': _('B: Cluster of signs'),
'C': _('C: Syndromic diagnosis'),
'D': _('D: Scientific diagnosis')
Most encounters or even episodes of care don't
reach C, let alone D.
