The reason why industries have created titles like "Software Engineer" and "Solution Architect" is precisely because they want to piggyback off the regulated professions. It's blatantly transparent. And quite rightly the professional associations have to fight back against this, just in the way that a company has to vigorously defend trademarks: if you let other people use it they'll dilute it. It's very much the same way naturopaths and chiropractors were desperate to call themselves "doctor".
