IMO, it’s because software engineering is still in infancy. There are very rapid changes in what and how you build things every 5-10 years.
But I agree with the point. I think we are at the stage where we view coders (who’s main job should be to “just” write great code) and engineers (who’s main job should be to build safe and cost effective solutions to problems) as interchangeable.
Those are different jobs.
