were talking about art history. You dont have to make art, just appreciate it
Being that half of my husband's dissertation is a comparison of Bartok's and Lutoslawski's concertos for orchestra, I think I'm talking about the same sort of thing, here.

Point being, they're both tough career choices, but in different ways, and that I wouldn't say one is easier than another. They're different, and we each gravitate towards our strengths, and the OP's friend's uncle is completely wrong in ignoring the strengths of engineers.
