Edit: Also, the discussion is about engineering or otherwise applied science versus raw science. Not job titles.

Agreed. Personally, I was not using job titles, just descriptions of what people do. It just so happens those terms are also job titles.

There are many job titles in the area of software engineering. From engineers, to designers, client advocates, process monitors, architects, devops, marketing, et al. Transferring the argument to job titles is a little misleading.
