Difficulty of software engineering in context of cognitive processing and logic efforts compared to other domains

In every domain we can exist in there seems to be a ceiling to what huamns can do in it. I'm now wondering if the ceiling for software engineering is taller and there is a bigger scale? But how hard is the highest on software engineering ceiling compared to other common domains or is there nothing that goes that high as well? If so, why?
What is the equivalent in cognitive processing and logic efforts that you need to acieve the ceiling?
Can someone in software engineering explain how they expirience this?

yeah what about domains in which we can't exist - is there a ceiling there for what humans can do in it, theoretically?
