i'd say that taken to a logical end any society in dnd would quickly learn that given the amount of training needed to produce either a fighter or wizard is roughly equal yet what you get out that training is not. Would soon lead to races abandoning non casters in favour of casters.
You can see it in society today as we have lots of very learned scholars and scientist and very few warrior elite.
Dnd generally takes place in a transitional time of rising or falling empires where magic is usually lost or hoarded. Once the infrastructure is in place casters who can make golems would become much more common.
