Coding bootcamps might teach you how to design algorithms and how to code them but developing software is so much more than that. Often you get very vague requirements from the customer and there are many phases of refinement after that, often in a loop. The customer often does not know what they need, though they have a problem to solve.
Those skills you don't fully develop at school or university, let alone a half year of bootcamp. I believe you have to have a developer's or engineering mindset in some way, early on in life, to be good at it.
My point being, if you choose a career swap, or suddenly realise you were studying something you are not passionate about, you still have a very big leap to make.
