The field of CS is still too new that people can't tell the difference between someone who can spell PHP, a good software engineer, and a theoretical computer scientist.
In other professions, they'd have titles like: lab assistant, chemical engineer, chemist.
In CS, they just have CS. So people talk about the minimal requirements to fall into that (overly broad) label.
