For reference, I am predicted to get a 99.5 ATAR and want to do engineering, and saw that I could do a double with Bphil. I was wondering why its so exclusive and what real application/benefit it has

I was considering doing a double degree of Philosophy and Engineering since it is the hardest thing to get into where I am from (top 1-2% of the state). However, how applicable is it to getting a good job and making money? (I will almost definitely be able to if I want to as I am predicted to be 99.7th percentile)
