I'm sure even you see that.
It does for people with brains something you have appeared to have long lost. They do not list any BS or MS designations but they do list ALL MD and PhDs. Since all the MDs have either a BS or MS degree then some of the MS degrees would be listed as MD but it clearly states:

Those with BS and MS degrees are undesignated or sometimes designated as MD if appropriate.

Again no person that has a BS or MS degree was designated but all MDs were designated thus some BS and MS degree holders would be designated as MDs. "if appropriate" means if they were a Medical Doctor. Again ALL MDs were designated.
