I like the question itself - my friend went into journalism and now preaches STEM. I believe there is a disproportionate representation of those folks (rather than STEM folks preaching STEM themselves) because they are aware of the media distribution channels while the STEM crowd is more of a dark-room thing... And not-as-able to spread our ideas to the non-STEM crowd due to unfamiliar channels we by nature deal with less. Because of that we should continue to observe this paradigm - And I, one of the crowd, will meanwhile warn the potential traveller that the STEM road is harder, but the reward is inherent to the choice of going through it. I find the following applies much:
"Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;
Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim
Because it was grassy and wanted wear,
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,
And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way
I doubted if I should ever come back.
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I,
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference."
