One of the primary annoyances that I have with using AP style, that I do not have when writing in MLA or creatively is the ability to use the title Dr. for both medical workers and people who have completed graduate school. I think it is just a matter of respect and that the title of Dr. is equally earned in both instances and should be able to be used in any type of writing. However, when using AP style it is only proper to use this title when referring to a medical doctor.
