I responded at length to this elsewhere, but quite simply this isn't causation yet. This statement is entirely about the information in our head, not the effect of actions on the world. The causal statement would be "training to become a programmer makes you like science more" and it already begins to indicate that we'd want to observe people who both do and do not decide to become programmers and question their preferences over time in order to have relevant information.
