This industry is a race to the bottom and long overdue for a massive salary reset. There is no society on Earth where someone who codes JavaScript (poorly) should make more money than, say, a doctor. Yet here we are.

A lot of doctors are just pill prescribers. I can't tell you how many times I've been to useless doctors that don't help and give you a big fat bill on the way out the door.
How much do you think doctors make?
Some make less than new grads at AMZN with 0 YOE.

You're really playing loose with the Venn diagram here.
Only "some" Amazon SWEs would "code JavaScript (poorly)."
Yet they're all expendable because their chosen skills are not essential for society to survive. They could all disappear tomorrow and the web and everything around it would move on.
