My multiple decade tech career is not exactly a hobby. Developing software, perhaps relatively niche among white collar workers.

I don't know what you're trying to prove, but smaller market share does not equate to hobby status. That's like saying that driving a Volvo is a hobby. Anyway, it's been a discussion but not particularly profitable, so have fun in another thread :)
