This is an interesting subject that I've often thought about.

I can only speak for my own community, and certainly not Argentina where 
I have a different impression, but I definitely agree with your statement. 

I know many IT nerds who are tango addicts as well as quite a few medical 
doctors, including psychologists and psychiatrists. I'm also amazed at the 
number of PhDs and university professors. Tango here is full of well-educated 
people, career-oriented and often in high-level, well-paid, stressful occupations.

I'm also involved in the Ballroom community and it definitely isn't the same.

I have no explanation. Btw, I'm a retired Civil Engineer.
