It’s like a child of doctors growing up to become a doctor.
Except these aren’t remotely the same scenarios, because it simply doesn’t happen as often in any other industry. If anything, the 9/10 number is LOW for entertainment.
My point with that comparison is precisely that. That child of doctors is a result of a type of nepotism and they are much more likely to make it in the medical field than a child who may be intrinsically smarter than them but did not have the advantage of having parents who instilled that passion to become a doctor and educated them for the profession at an early age.

It’s a terrible comparison.
Nobody’s going to give the child of a talented surgeon the chance to do surgery on themselves.
But they might give the child of a talented actor a role in a film, this is a situation of connections not nurture.
Example: After Earth (2013)
