If the patient only speaks Mandarin and the doctor only speaks english, what translates the patients response? This system is not useful if the response cannot be understood. Perhaps all the questions are just yes/no answers...
Thinking back a few years to when I was newbie to Linux it was a hard road to get things going how I wanted them.
Initially I wanted things to work just the way they did in Windows, that's what I was familiar with. Learning a new way (even if it is a better way) was difficult. Especially when the UI was inconsistant between applications. Of course the UI I use most now is the command line which suits me just fine. But for a new user... I don't think so.
The other thing that made the transition difficult was the docs. My most common action after reading a doc was to sit back in my chair and exclaim "WTF!" There is a lot of jargon you're expected to know if you read the docs that new users just don't.

WOW! That makes 6,000,000,000 (6 billion) Linux developers. With that many developers I would say the Win32 API is already dead.
Unless some of those 6 billion developers got bored and decided to implement Win32 on Linux. Now there's an interesting idea...
