I don't disagree with what you're saying but I want to point out that it's rather unusual for (American) ambulances to carry blood, and probably more of them should.

Correct. The only ambulances that typically will stock blood are specialized NICU ambulances and HEMS (helicopter). Although more progressive agencies are looking more and more at part blood products.
