Imagine that your embarrassingly slow software literally costs people's health (and maybe even lives in the long run). But we will still pretend like everything is fine, because "the DEveLopEr eXPeRiEncE", and "jUsT buY beTTeR hArDWaRe".
And sure, hospital issued PCs aren't fast, but if they are anything from past decades, they still have processors running billions operations per second.
And such managing software isn't something demanding either. The fact that it takes any thing longer then your IO bounded critical path is pathetic.
It's just tragic how little we actually care today for end user experience, despite all the pretending.

Most modern frameworks, languages, and concepts are developed and owned by ad companies. Then we take these and build critical stuff with it. Then they use it as a leverage to expand into industries where their stuff is used. There are some UX folks here and there but they're more happy to work on something "engaging" and "addicting".
This is not only in healthcare. This is everywhere. Although computers are much faster, we need to wait for them more.
And although i run 2d programs 99,99 % of the time, developers optimize for 3d.
Although they are not able to draw a 3d button, the whole screen is drawn on a surface.
