    the way i look at it, everyone should just do what they enjoy.
    All combinations have their benefits and you tend to be better at the things you like (for a variety of reasons), so if you do what appeals to you that maximizes the total amount of knowledge and skill you can gain.

    Like, we’re one of the most social species on earth, this is kinda the whole reason why everyone is so diverse, we have weaponized the ability to learn and benefit from each other. Because we stand on the shoulders of giants we have the freedom to benefit from having passions, rather than being forced to do things we don’t like to just survive. By dint of being diverse, we have people who inherently LOVE collecting garbage or maintaining electrical equipment.
