The idea
Evidence-based decision makers have no formula that tells them how to combine what research found with what this patient values in this encounter.

Two patients, the same evidence, two defensible decisions.
Where people slip
The absence of a formula is the reason discernment is required, and the reason the decision cannot be delegated to a protocol.
