There is no single "master nurse" title. Nurses take specializations (just like MDs can become e.g. ophthalmologists), or smaller courses in specific proficiencies (eg to administer specific treatments). Maybe a nurse that took every course in existence would know as much as an MD (though I expect there would be bits missing here and there, particularly theoretical biochemical knowledge), but a regular nurse certainly doesn't.
Titles don't have something directly to do with competency.
I would guess that most MD forget most of their theoretical biochemical knowledge 10 years after finishing their studies.
That doesn't mean such knowledge shouldn't be required from MDs, including transitioning nurses. Or if it does, then MDs shouldn't have to learn it in the first place.
If most of them are allowed to work without that knowledge it defacto isn't required for working as a doctor.
