"Most people would agree that attending a 6 week bootcamp shouldn’t entitle somebody to a 200-300k job. And it won’t in the near future."
People agree with that because it's true, developers landing those kinds of jobs are people coming out of strong universities (Stanford, Berkeley, etc), already have connections, or are senior level positions.
Nobody comes out of a code camp having just learned react and lands a 250 K position. Not sure where you got that information from but that's a serious outlier.

They hire people straight out of bootcamps, and schools of all tiers. And many with little skills could grind leetcode and make 200k with no past experience. I became wealthy through egregious tech pay, I’ve seen it all firsthand. Were you asleep at the wheel through the whole Covid bubble?
