I mostly agree, but wanted to nit on this point:

> hell even big operations like a heart transplant or C-section are rarely done "in the moment."

Agree on the plannability, but not on the predictability. Once you are on that table, and especially if you are under anesthesia, there are an untold number of ways that procedure can quickly turn into a secondary emergency procedure. It's a miracle of modern medicine that such invasive procedures are perceived as being trivial.
