So even if we ignore for a minute that software can have warranties... having a warranty? Really? That's what you're going try to say means software development is not an engineering discipline? You could have just accepted my arguments with some grace. You don't expect me to dignify this with a response surely.
As an end user of software I don’t have SLAs or warranties, just EULAs that guarantee nothing and the ground constantly shifting underneath me with updates that take away features or turn me in to a subscription revenue stream as some functionality is unnecessarily moved to the cloud.
I am sure there is software created by an engineering process by software engineers, but it is probably less visible to me in my day to day computing. The effort you detailed that is required to make sure a chip works is a good one.
And I agree electrical and computer engineering are disciplines.
