Yes, that could be related to the fact that bitcoin isn't something anyone with any familiarity with economics should take seriously. (For the purposes of this comment "familiarity with economics" should be understood to mean: has so much as shopped in a grocery store).

We have jobs right now, it's not like we're hobos. But if you ask any open source developer what's stopping them from adding cool new feature X, fixing bug Y, or starting project Z that they're excited about the answer distribution will look like:
25% - I haven't needed that yet 75% - I don't have the time .00001 % - That is completely technically infeasaible
(Numbers may not add up to 100 after rounding).
I'll write on my personal blog later today why you should care about all of that, but that's the view from 10,000 feet.
