> The people who have it easy are the ones with a MS or PHD and years of experience doing data science work at companies under their belt. There are very few of these people right now.

Are there enough of those people to meet the demand, even recognizing that it is smaller than the overall software engineering demand? If not, it seems like the parent's point still holds.

Edit: But thanks for the perspective on the size of the market and level of hype, that's a useful data point.
