I agree with this take, having dropped out from my PhD.
I have reluctantly come to accept over the years that my intellectual interests need to be catered to separately from whatever I need to do to economically sustain myself as an adult.
Some lucky people find a good fit (irrespective of institution, academia or industry) but most of us flail around most of the time.
