Recently, I've witnessed some senior academics mock PhDs & postdocs for choosing industry. Apart from the utterly baseless points raised (hours are flexible in many data science jobs, workloads are often similar, etc.) — it's completely out of order in general. I see you.

i feel that moving to industry is perfectly fine, as long as you don't think it's going to get rid of all the problems one faces in academia and life will be hunky dory---you often just acquire new kinds of problems.

Depends on where the more money is — I'm sure less money on an individual level has its own set of difficulties that often more money can fix. On a company level, bigger projects (more money) can indeed cause bigger problems (if they fail spectacularly for example).
