In my case I have an air handler in the attic that's the size of a small car. It has to be disassembled to come out without taking part of the roof off. Then add the new duct work in the 140 deg. attic. I can see how some guys wouldn't want to work for peanuts in such conditions. And all the ones in AZ are pretty busy around this time of year.
