Maybe there is some other reason that your DS needed the surgery or couldn't take the ibuprofen. It's hard to say!
Also I've found some things are not black and white and hospitals do things differently. Andrew's doctors may have assumed some risk that yours don't want to take, or maybe using IBproufen was a newer thing at the time, or vice versa.
Another example is that when they were trying to keep me pregnant, I was on magnesium sulfate & laying upside down. A friend went through the same circumstances and sent to a different hospital (research hospital) nearby and they said their research didn't show those things to be effective so she did neither.
I guess as long as you trust your doctor that is all you can do! Everything has pros and cons and nothing is B&W, so everybody has a different opinion!
I love our NICU though and we are delivering at the hospital again!

Isn't that odd?
