Does it pass the conversation test?
You're sitting in a diner and an old acquaintance walks in. Conversation begins and you ask what he does for a living and he responds that he's a "coder". You ask, "Oh? What language?" to which he responds, "HTML."
Not really. It's simply a reflection of how terms get tossed around where they are incorrect, such as the much over used "engineer". There are "sanitation engineers", "software engineers", and "civil engineers", and it's possible that any of these are truly engineers. It's also possible that they are not.
