After my surgical experience a few months ago, I would not expect that outcome at all, whatever the surgeon said. In fact, I would be shocked if it actually happened.
I think Bay's point is that there is a spillover effect. You see enough potato chip ads to realize that they're overblown - 'cause it's not like choosing Cape Cod over Lay's is going to change your life - that you might start wondering about other ads you see. Or professions that are purported to do X.
