Yep. Volume issues. All the standard parts are RoHS. Then the questions get asked. Fortunately there are recent 4-element alloys that have fairly good properties and seem to lack tin whisker problems. Nothing fully qualified for space / life critical quite yet, but it is on the horizon.

But: John Doe does not get what was normal in industry 10 years ago. He just gets ever increasing property tax and other bills. Followed by eternal lamentations that those taxes aren't enough.
The litmus test is this: When an agency receives boatloads of applications like it supposedly happens for the prison guard jobs then something is seriously out of balance.
And yes, I agree with you that tenure track should not exist.

aResearch specialists making >10k/mo? That is a rather decent salary. Most researchers in industry do not make that much.
Also, you have to consider that you guys have what almost amounts to tenure. When the budget is tight the taxpayer is expected to jump in. When the budget is tight in industry layoffs follow in due course. Right now EE is on a roll but remember 2001-2004?

Although I must say that the folks who designed MS-Works did a fine job. Even the Windows versions of it never crashed on me. That is quite unusual for Windows programs.
I just hope RoHS doesn't blow up in our face like other hip-shot decisions by politicos. Such as MTBE in California gasoline. But it might. Only time will tell.
Speaking of gasoline, try this: Put 1/4 cup of modern gasoline with its mandated percentage of ethanol in an open tray, and wait a few minutes.
First, the container will chill down from the 70F range to the low 40s and then you will cloud up, and you will see brown dirt, and water globules form on the bottom of the container.
This will spell the end to lawn mowers, and other gasoline driven devices, that don't have sealed pressurized gas tanks.
