Most programming is about turning set of chaotic and very poorly defined business requirements into a code. Which usually means you end up with complex code to handle edge cases that were not defined prior to development. Constantly changing business requirements and unreasonably deadlines don't help. End result can be very stressful and not enjoyable. That's why I think there isn't enough developers. Lots of people just don't have nerves to do this job.
