"We're so incredibly lucky it's hard to fathom."

But we are not, in UK developers are slightly above average office workers, they have no advantage on lawyers, bankers, doctors, etc.

Personally I would still consider that lucky in the grand scheme of things. I'd never compare myself or the work I do to that of a doctor.

Is there some logical reason I'm missing why it should be any different than it is?
