Why? Is there a definition of engineering that does exclude software development, or is membership required to become one?

Some places have legal requirements to use engineer as a title, with occasionally amusing consequences: https://www.techspot.com/news/78096-oregon-engineer-wins-fre...

Some states have recognize software engineering as a proper engineering field. And to become one you must pass technical and ethical exams.
A lot of software developers call themselves engineers without even having taken physics 101!
