Every group of people who's remotely decently specialized... will get very smug assholes. I've met IT people who just want to help you get your shit done, and those who look down at you for being a "stupid user". Also I've met Doctors whom think they are god, and Doctor's who want to be a partner in your health journey and are totally non-judgemental (at least outwardly).
I'm sure you'd find the same in any similar field. Engineers. Pilots. Mechanics. Nurses.
And yes, everyone looks at the world from their personally centric view of the world. It's the only way we, as humans, know how. After all, how would you get to your oh-so-important job if not for the road engineer, or the mechanic who built your car, or the city designer who designed the routes that you use every day.
Some are more aware of main character syndrome [1] than others... and some are just less assholes than others.
