I think it might have to do with the fact that being a developer also requires you to be fairly creative. I'm no expert on the subject but to me, it feels like when you can pour a lot of creativity into the work you do, it's going to feel a lot more satisfying. I also think this goes for most engineering professions. Most of my friends are engineers of some sort (software, cars, airplanes, robotics) and they all have this kind of enthusiasm when they talk about solutions they have made up. It's this combination of creativity and technical intellect that I think is so satisfactory. I can't imagine some other generic office jobs giving the same kind of satisfaction for this reason.
