I spoke with Nils Bergman.  His nursery cares for NO babies on ventilators, hyperal, etc.  His babies are already the survivors with accelerated lung maturity, etc.  While I agree that we can do a much better job with kangaroo care and breastfeeding in most NICUs, please note that we are not dealing with populations that are in any way comparable!
