I think the statement "people will put up with many things if you are excellent at math" is incredibly revealing

That guy at my university never developed the skills to work in a corporate environment. Last I heard he is unemployed most of the time

Having jever developed the ability to fail at things, he was also unable to continue academics. He made it through an undergrad on pure intellect. That didn't work so well for grad school

Also undergrad researchers were only making $15/hour, so not like staying in that role indefinitely is a great career
