I would love to be so closed-minded as you, not realizing that other people are different than you.
Ignorance is a bliss.
Some people are in tech because its a job, not because they love it. Some people got burned out. Some people discover other things that they love more then what they doing currently.
Programming would be the worst job in the world if you didn't love it and weren't naturally good at it. I don't know why people would get involved in it otherwise. You either have an aptitude for it or you don't. It's completely obvious within days of trying it out. If you don't you honestly shouldn't pursue it.
Same as doing accounting, teaching, doctoring etc.
Yet people still do it. Because some people have families, mortgages and can't just flip table and do entry level job in completely different industry.
Not every programmer is 10x programmer who has side projects that they work on after work and dreams in c++.
Same with any other profession. I'll bet there are skydiving instructors who don't care much about it anymore but still do it for monetary reasons.
Your comment has little empathy. You may have started out loving it and was naturally good at it. But, as life goes on, you change, your circumstances change. It's one of those phrases that mean little until it happens to you.
