Because modern society is often not condusive to our good brain health. We have to find the few healthy pathways that are left to us. We would have been the bomb 10 000 years ago though.

Yeah, the majority of what's expected, like 9 - 5, show up on time, keep track of tens of different things at once etc. is definitely difficult for ADHD brains without good coping strategies.
I would argue some jobs (data, engineering, dev work, especially agency work) play into the strengths of someone with ADHD, but the structures we build around them are limiting, since output + time management is often top priority, and middle management doesn't want to spend additional resources looking after someone or introducing flexibility.
