The salaries will become low enough that people will give up on getting a Cs degree

I agree with this. A big chunk of the supply was not from fresh 4-year graduates. There are several postbacc programs in the US that target career switchers, which are already seeing their enrollments tank within the last year or so. People are less willing to spend more money on a 2nd degree if they already have a stable but undesirable career if it no longer seems that software engineers get significantly higher pay.
