   There are a few other reasons to get a JD. A law librarian, for example,   
   has both a JD and an MLS, but isn't expected to be licensed to practice   
   law.   
      
   I'm not saying you're wrong overall. It probably started as just a test,   
   and then schools sprang up to prepare people for the test, and now we   
   have this.
