Some states, like Oregon I believe, have similar prohibitions about the word "engineer" being one's job title. Others only prohibit signing off as a PE unless certified.
Most life critical systems, such as medical devices, bridges, and buildings, require a PE to sign off in the states.
Removing the "engineer" from a title or position that doesn't require a PE is not likely to happen, and is really just semantics.
The bigger issue I see, especially with DoD IT systems, is that the federal government career field that manages those requires NO education.
