It is important and complex and hard work, I never questend that. I questioned the ,,just a quick script'' part actually. But I doubt that it can be as interesting as working on the game engine where you get visual feedback. If you look at the software market, there are lots of stories about game programmers being underpayed compared to other programmers even when they have better knowledge about the inner workings of the computer hardware. There is a valid reason for it.
