My assumption is the credibility of a non-PhD-holding medical student’s research is 0, just like (almost) any other inexperienced researcher.

For residency, the two most important things are: 1) board scores. 2) research output.
It's not uncommon to see 40-50 publications for competitive residencies.
incentives, incentives, incentives.

LLVM was a masters thesis project (not medicine related but research by non PhDs should not be disregarded imo)
Earlier quoted context omitted.
Well, that is a statement..! As an MD PhD with over 60 (co-)publications including multiple in top 1% journals I can say for sure that this is untrue. Of course this may be different per topic and country, but there is perfect research being published by non-PhD scientists. In fact, the PI from a top-tier US university I collaborate with for over 10 years doesn't even have a PhD.
You can be a PI without having a PhD?
Researcher/academics pay/promotoins should be contingent on reviewing,challenging and reproducing papers rather than publishing quantity, because publishing cartels and AI has already degraded most research fields.

Such obvious common sense appears not obvious after all.
