An engineer would never hide this distinction.
No, an engineer would write a set of tech specs on the front of the packaging so absolutely convoluted that a consumer wouldn't know if they are buying a graphics card or a 3rd year computer science text book.
We fall into this trap all the time. I fall into this trap occasionally even when talking to management. People on the whole do not want to know technical details. We are engineers blaming engineers for something that graphic designers and a marketing team put on the front of the package.
