"Data scientist" properly ought to be something like "statistician" or "predictive modeler" in most orgs. I think the need for a broader umbrella term is still present and I think that explains the wide adoption of the word "data science" in the first place. But the current meaning has been stretched way too far. > Maybe a we’re seeing unsatisfied need for, like, office workers with some technical proficiency? Specifically, data analysts who also know Python.
