Well do you think it is? I personally can't think of any other

There have always been technical hobbies, astronomy, amateur radio, rocketry,
home machine shop, and even aircraft building. I'm not sure that it
matters so much which is most technical, but I suspect many of those
hobbies share the problems of amateur radio. We don't think of those
other hobbies because they aren't all that visible beyond their circles,
which of course is the case for amateur radio, likely even more so in the case
fo ham radio as a technical hobby.
