Sports players have a limited amount of time to exploit their bodies. Developers have a much longer lifetime of continuous learning, opportunities to get better, and focus on being the best they can be. But at the end of the day, when a developer or player no longer offers their organization value, they will be cut loose. This is hugely destructive to that person's ability to care for themselves and their families. Is it any wonder that they want to do whatever they can to secure a stable future for themselves?
