Yes I've heard placebo's work better if they have an official license
That may even be true, but even it is isn't, licensing placebos would be a handy bypass to the reluctance of some GPs to prescribe off-label. Prescribing antibiotics for viral infections is dangerous on a population level, we need a way for doctors to get rid of idiot patients quickly in a way which doesn't threaten the rest of us.
