Are you aware that on long haul international flights pilots do in fact rotate who is actively "flying" the plane? Flying is in quotes because most of the work is done by automation these days. I won't draw any analogies between the autopilot doing much of the work for pilots and nurses doing it for doctors because I can't actually support the statement with any data.
Yes, but that's the whole point: there's little risk in rotating pilots, whereas rotating members of the care team carries a substantial risk of key information falling by the wayside.
