Still reduces to to the same thing. Doctor? You’re extending the life of people who sell shit. Teacher? You’re training future shit sellers.
The entire industrialized economy runs off of extracting resources to create stuff.

The difference being that a human life is valuable outside of what shit they sell in their job. They're also friends, spouses, parents, and, well, individuals. People are not reduced to their job. Whereas a job selling shit is a job selling shit. It doesn't "reduce to", it is 100% that and only that. Doctors will also treat criminals if they're shot etc., as they should - and it's a good thing. Doesn't mean crime is good. I mean, as much is obvious...
