On one end, if you get good fundamentals, you'll understand the practical side too.
On the other end, most of engineering knowledge is from experience.
Switching undergrad courses to be about understanding THE DOM so we can drive browsers to render our printed-paper skeuomorphs isn't going to drive any kind of innovation. It's not going to put you in a good position to generalise to other work.
Furthermore, if you aspire to centering divs and tweaking webpack, you don't need a CS course for that.
