You're maximizing the gap though. People go from doing EE work on some embedded device, to writing software for the same class of device.

Sure, because there is large variance in engineering. Not just EE, either. If your an ME you might design HVAC but it doesn’t mean you can take an ME’s role designing CFD models in aerospace applications. Pretending jobs are interchangeable is a disservice to the skillsets
