Also the construction of physical objects obeys unchanging physical laws. The construction of software is the coalescence of arbitrary logic. Real engineers decry the lack of discipline in software engineering, but I don't think it's possible to impose anything approaching the discipline of physical engineering without radically more constraints, but to do that would require subdividing software into a large number of much more focused domains, and even then, the divisions would be somewhat arbitrary.
