Even specifically in the case of Medic, I hardly think they had Kiefer voice him because they were running out of time, or had too few voice actors or whatever. Matthew Mercer and Crispin Freeman voiced guards and could have been used easily, or even Robin Atkin Downes (Kaz) could have just put on another voice to voice Medic if they insisted on recycling VAs. A VA is a clue, and in this case a clue of a connection, in conjunction with what else we know about Ishmael and Medic (such as obscured faces and whatnot). If you consider the repertoire of voices that Troy Baker has (having voiced so many different characters and being able to distinguish between different voices in these roles), it's surprising that they didn't just use him in this case if the Medic was missing a VA (as opposed to using Kiefer at the last minute, who isn't really a trained VA and has difficulty performing alternate voices - at least, from what I know about him)
