alt Hacker NewsI suppose you could say, “they are both doctors” or “they are all doctors.”
Those sound fine to me, depending on context.

Yes, but then it may sound as if "both/all" is being highlighted which it isn't in the neutral "they are doctors" statement
And there we get to the word both or all, where interestingly Mandarin has an (over)insistence on using it, even in places, where it seems unnecessary.
