Quality of instructor is objectionable.
Not really. The shotgun is one of the few weapons out there where there is such a consensus on some of these issues that an instructor that promulgates the myths almost by definition does not know what he is talking about.

One of the links about Bird shot mentioned someone who had an instructor teach them to use Bird Shot for home defense....
I've taught it also. But I do not teach it as a good choice. In fact, a really good instructor will teach you how to modify your birdshot shell to make it more effective.

With all due respect to your GF, natural Herbalistic Doctors usually have little or no actual training in sciece and medicine, so I know who I will rely on.

Both offer compelling arguments based on studies and viewpoints.
But not all studies are of the same rigor and quality. No matter how compelling the argument, the universe was not created 4000 years ago, even though there are those who present that viewpoint and will show you studies to support it.
