In many instances, "make things tolerable" is the objective because nothing more can be done.

You're right that in many instances, making things tolerable becomes the objective. But that's a fall-back objective. The goal was solving the problem, but that was unfeasible so we're relegated to making things tolerable. Making things tolerable does not solve the problem. It may be all that can be don and it's no knock on physicians when a problem in insoluble. It's great that we have physicians to identify the situation as one where we can't solve the problem but only mitigate the impact or prepare us for the worst. But you can't claim that that solves the problem.
