I think we need to get each of these content providers to change their ME/CFS content. It is such an uphill battle to have doctors, health insurance, and disability companies support us.
Having this understood as a medical problem, with immune dysfunction, microbiome disruption, and nutrient deficiencies (as found by Naviaux, Armstrong, et al.) rather than a psychiatric problem (where disability benefits can be cut off after 2 years and psychiatric drugs, which mask the problem and don't address the immune dysfunction, are prescribed), would be useful to many of us in getting help when we go to these major institutions like Kaiser or the major research university I found the Healthwise content at.
