The question of whether it is too easy to become a pilot is still something that has to be addressed but the barriers to entry are still pretty high (cost).
I agree.. I know quite a few who started out and gave up when they found out about pay and QOL. Always thought to myself that I hope it will means a pilot shortage and better pay for me.
