You probably never programmed photo-lithographic equipment, plasma etchers or have never even used a scanning electron microscope...
Programming computers (machines), is not a science. It may be creative but it doesn't explore the unknown or add to our knowledge of the universe. But if you'd like to argue that in some cases it is a creative art, I might be with you.
Albert Einstein was not a scientist???
Get over it...
The chip sets in your computer don't add to your knowledge of the universe?
In your case, maybe not....
