Problem I've see is DevOps isn't seen as a specific role encompassing the areas you lay out. Instead a lot of companies are adding it on as a skill set requirement for those doing other aspects of engineering. To put it simply, devops is a function of a job rather than core to a job for many companies. "We do devops" means - you write the code and do administration as well. When the required skills sets dont always overlap.
