Why do you assume it's even interesting to them at all?
I make small games as a hobby, but I absolutely wouldn't want to work in game development professionally (I only ever did some light contract work before moving on to another field). I treat making my own games as artistic expression, just like recording songs or painting images - not everyone does these things, do they? Seems like it's just a particular kind of people. That said, I got hooked on initially only because writing my own game framework seemed interesting technically - and now that I have a technical base for my games mostly figured out I wouldn't want to do it again; there are much more interesting things in IT that I haven't explored yet or that need much more love and can actually make a bigger impact, so games stay as my artistic hobby that's mostly limited to game jams and I like it this way.
