I remember being like that when I was learning, I literally couldn't get problems out of my head, my brain would be trying to solve a code issue while I'm trying to sleep.

What world are you living on? Most of silicon valley use Mac. Most the professions you listed DO use Mac. Since Apple silicon, performance for price ratio beats most Windows options for most people.
Except they're not. They're excellent products and since Apple silicon are actually half decent value in some cases.
Not really true, the evidence shows the popularity of the group may go down but concern over the issue goes up.
Tell us a better way that hasn't already been tried, one that's proportional to the urgency. Genuinely open to ideas.
