Not sure why youre downvoted. The same article can be written on why software engineers like fishing or anything else.

I would downvote because the person is being reductive, in such a way that you can destroy most joy in life.

Saying software engineering is like woodworking is overly reductive in the same way, point is that humans tend to see too many patterns and similarities even though they aren't really more similar than other things.
