Seems to me the passion industries either pay less (education, game dev, social or environmental work) due to high supply of candidates, or demand way too much

  It's just supply and demand putting its greasy fingers in everything combined with poor unionization from the employee side (of their own accord, often enough). Nurses could force better circumstances if they collectively accepted to work more sane shifts and make society deal with the problem of too few nurses instead. Animators could be better if they stopped accepting working 60+ hours to push animation which gets bingewatched for a few cents in a day. But we collectively accept the circumstances, and so a few years of intense practicing drawing is paid worse than taking a bootcamp on how to write API calls and play planning poker (poorly).
