> why bother to promote such salaries as somehow common

Because common isn't the right word. Attainable is.



Looking back, we are responding to a post saying “$200k shouldn't be considered high.” That’s not saying 200+k is Attainable that’s saying 200k is common.

They also say $350k isn't an "incredible" which seems to suggest it’s more than just attainable it’s a reasonable goal.
