WFH doesn't democratize software engineering, because programming is so hard, very few people want to do it, and the reason for the exorbitant salaries is because people are paid to basically bang their heads against walls all day in frustration. Unless you are so competent that the act of coding feels smooth and isn't an adversary, but then everyone would be doing it, so?

It seems supply and demand still plays a critical role in engineering pay. In addition, EE is much harder to learn and requires rare talent to master, yet the engineerings in EE have been seeing decreasing pays for years.
