It's not though. The big money in SW is in hyper growth industries that get a cut every time consumers earn/spend money on your platform or click on ads. The more consumers you onboard and the more they make/spend, the more you can make. I have developed SW for cars, trains, elevators and security access systems and those gigs pay significantly less than those web gigs targeting consumers, despite being indispensable to modern society, since they're sunk cost products and vendors don't get a cut every time someone takes the elevator, enters the building, starts their car or takes the train.
