It matters when the engineer can have a direct and material effect on
the health and welfare of a person (e.g. civil, electrical, mechanical
).  It also harms the reputation of engineers with the public due to
confusion or derision.  Diluting the term engineer does a disservice to
the public and to the engineers.
