Yes, but then the question arises: why is software treated differently to other engineering in Japan?

Because software is more an art than an engineering discipline?

Software is - or needs to be - an engineering discipline. It is very much less mature than the others, and the challenges are different too. You wouldn't expect a civil engineer to design a new chip without a lot of training in a completely new discipline.
