Someone just wrote me a long email saying “software engineer” is a misnomer and that programmers do not deserve the classification because “real” engineers’ work cannot fail as often as software and programmers do not use scientific principles.

How should I respond?

With the infamous saying about Edison. How his team of engineers failed 10 000 times before making a light bulb.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
