who would never tell a patient he or she was dying. But IIRC, that wasn't so much in diagnosing a condition which could be treated, as when death was imminent. That's not what this is an example of.

Not that I approve of the practice regardless of the circumstances. If you don't have a right to know you are dying, what do you have a right to know?
