More data (daily scans) can mean we get better at medicine, though, and more accurate. You're assuming "daily cancer scans" look just like they do today, rather than eg unobtrusive devices in our daily lives that measure changes over time.

The frequent "muh false positives" comment we hear from doctors appears to be a lack of imagination?
