On the upper end (probably even in the middle) software developers earn more than licensed engineers. I'm pretty sure your mom can brag about her child the developer making 3x what her friend's child the engineer makes.
There are engineers who end up moving to software for just this reason.
Software is super important and becomes more so over time. I'm not sure why being proud of being a developer isn't enough and why it has to end up with wanting to use the term engineer.
