I am assuming you are an engi. If so, it's about the leverage. Her time, responsibility, and risk is 1:1. An engi's time can lead to exponential returns, and mistakes can lead to exponential disaster.

Leverage just set the ceiling, then you enter on offer and demand kind of world. Software developers just have it good in 2021. Also, if OP lives in a low income country, he has better options to sell himself compared to a doctor, normally constrained to the local market.

Not sure what you mean by "exponential", but mistakes by an anaestheseologist can certainly lead to disaster. Like, people can die. I'd think at least for the people doing the dying that's quite "exponential" enough. How is the possibility of killing people if you make a mistake on the job more "risk is 1:1" than for a software developer (or "engi", as the trendy kids apparently call it nowadays)?
