Hmm - i'd like to see the proportion of self-taught engineers that quit before they became self-taught engineers. This feels like a classic WW2 bomber problem.

More computer science grads end up graduating while despising computer science ( I knew many) because it's just a potential career track. I think there's a bit of a survival bias within this, you aren't going to get data from self-taught people who now work in accounting because they tried to be self-taught but didn't really find passion.
