Seems as this was propably just a single opinion of this lady or a change in LH policy...
Even if Germany is not US, we have some laws. And a doctor (or EMT) who intentionally does not help in emergencies can get into trouble (unterlassene Hilfeleistung, not Garantenstellung )

As I said, on LH interconti flights the medical equiqment is IME not bad: oxygen, blood pressure meter, heart defibrillator, dressing material, selction of emergency medicine etc.
