And yet ironically, in the US at least, there’s a decent chance that plumber actually makes more than a physician.

Unlikely, but if he does it’s because he’s the “owner of a plumbing business” not just a plumber.
Possibly upto a point, if you factor in that the physician has to contend with paying back $400K in loans and $1M+ in lost income from not working during earlier years in life.
