I could see HS maybe making a return depend on if Muncherstation can accomodate him.
The current station's biggest problem was that Research was closer to medbay and without much reason to seperate research and medbay, both can pretty much function under one person.
Medbay works pretty much by itself and pretty much doesn't need a head most of the time.
If a HS can actually prove useful filling roles as needed, then sure.
Consolidating RD and HS into one job may have seemed like a good idea at the time, but most of the time RD never really fills the "doctor" roles really well.
Having a HS that can open genetics and clone a guy, or remove a brain and put it in a cyborg when roboticists are gone or nonexistant, or do surgeries on dudes (and dudettes), would be great.
I kind of like to think of the HS as the doctor of many talents, not just head doctor and doctor to the heads.
