Comment on "A guitarist who's also an astronaut" sounds more impressive than "An astronaut who plays the guitar", despite both meaning the same thing.

Counts! I’ve paid some tabs, and sometimes rent playing guitar, but had to go back to science to make it work long term.

I had to make a decision. Everything is a sliding scale/gradient. Money aside even, it’s a lot easier to do great stuff as a musician outside of a science career than it is to to great stuff as a scientist outside of a music career.
