To be fair, Engineer isn't a protected title in the U.S.

A Professional Engineer is, but I don't think I've ever seen anyone claim Musk is a P.E.

    Titles ending on engineer is so bloated, basically anything within IT is an engineer. A support level 1 engineer. A software engineer. A Quality Assurance engineer. And the list goes on, historical reason being corporate pay bands being based on titles, hence engineers were offered better pay
