Channelling my inner HR drone here, but I've heard that all at different times from them when looking for talent:
Because why would you linger around in university if you can have a serious income ten years earlier? Obviously something must be "wrong" with you, something that would make you a complicated employee that just asks for creating trouble. Better hire a CS bachelor for a third of what you would ask (risking you'd run as soon as you get some offer more to your liking), not like we're doing any revolutionary bleeding-edge stuff anyways.
