You have really good point too! Maybe just an indication of higher risk, and just saying "Hey, screening more often couldn't hurt." Might actually be a net positive, and wouldn't warrant such extreme measures unless it was positively identified by, hopefully, human professionals.

You're right though, there always seems to be more demand than supply for anything medicine related. Not to mention, here in the U.S for example, needless extra screenings could also heavily impact a lot of people.

There's a lot to be considered here.
