That was McCoy’s attitude about dialsis and 20th Century medicine in general, which was well in keeping within his crotchety nature and was slightly comical, not meant to preach that 20th Century medicine is backward. But if we went to medieval times and called them dumbasses for not knowing about modern biology, that would be showing our own ignorance.
