R405,
I think you talk with tongue in cheek or else you really don't know what is involved in learning to fly.
The flight time required for the various licences and ratings does not reflect the time spent in preparation for those flights nor the time spent studying for and sitting all the exams.
Also the hours for the licences are minimum requirements. Nearly all first jobs in the aviation game are considered as part of the apprenticeship for an airline job. Most airline jobs require a much higher level of experience than just the bare licence requirements.
An entry-level lawyer or accountant working 8 hours per day will gain 1,500 hours' experience in just 9 months
The lawyer might have 1500 hours of time at work, but 1500 hours in the courtroom?, I think not.
To gain 1500 hours of flight time would take at least 3 years for the average person probably more.
You are not giving enough credit to the efforts required to become an experienced pilot.
