> Engineers, as practitioners of engineering, are professionals who invent, design, analyze, build and test machines, complex systems, structures, gadgets and materials to fulfill functional objectives and requirements while considering the limitations imposed by practicality, regulation, safety and cost.[1][2]
I think it's just kind of silly to try to title something based on the how, not the what. A painter paints, right? But what about all of the other jobs and roles that include painting? Are they painters?
Those that disagree with "Software engineers" being called "Engineers" are again propagating nonsense (my post that started this thread).
