A key issue is the maturity we, as a field, expect from compiler research. I know highly regarded scientists in good venues of other fields that have evaluations consisting of five line Python programs. On purely economic terms, one cannot viably compete with that.</p>

In other areas, researchers can publish multiple papers in these two years.</p><p>The metrics based assessment of scientific success inevitably tilts scales towards fields requiring less upfront effort.
