I tend to feel this way (also 40-year coder).

It's because of the way that I use the tools, and I have the luxury of being a craftsman, as opposed to a "TSA agent."

But then, I don't get paid to do this stuff, anymore. In fact, I deliberately avoid putting myself into positions, where money changes hands for my craft. I know how fortunate I am, to be in this position, so I don't say it to aggravate folks that aren't.
