I'll drop the bomb and confidently say that soon this question will be rephrased to "why don't people like science or technology". Because there isn't much science in either. The tendency is to move towards assembly lines, where "workers" are expected to chase tickets and churn out features. A slippage in production will quickly be noticed on a story point chart and an eager manager will happily pass on negative reviews and replace the "resource" on a whim. Naturally there are exceptions, but at least the software world is saturated with software to the point where it's become free. Many will be replaced by ai autocomplete functions because their jobs are repetitive and boring and those financing tech know it. So if we want more people in tech we need find and develop new tech areas to generate value. Just like software, in their early stages these will be fun and people will take interest in them until they become the chryslers and fords of yesterday or the facebooks and googles of today. Boring and repetitive.
