By that logic we all should be limited to driving a Geo Metro with a govenor limiting it to 65mph.
It's not how fast you DO go- but how fast you COULD go that's important.

You can rake in a seven-figure salary and have several PhDs, but if you're not happy, what's the point?

Some degrees are vocational. You are required to have the qualification in order to do the job. All the principal degrees I can think of are like this and many professions (Clinical Psychology for instance) require a PhD or Psch D for the person to practise alone or "hang up their shingle".
The pieces of paper actually provide a basic grounding in the field for those of us who just want to do the dammed job!
