I agree with both of you. Some coding is part of a real engineering process. That's why I don't like using "engineering" to refer to coding broadly - because it loses that specificity and connotation.
As "coders" or "programmers", some of us should answer the question "are you an engineer?" with a proud "of course not!" (That's me.) And some of us should answer, equally proudly, "of course I am!"
Hillel Wayne's series is great.
