They could just call it "Field Service Tech" like the rest of the universe. I understand using title inflation/deflation to keep pushing the engineer title (and pay expectation) into the dirt, but still, this is dumb.

Ehh, I don’t think folks are claiming to be active duty or former military personnel, which is the bar for stolen valor accusations in my book. I agree with the sentiment but not with the determination of finding fault. Folks hired for a specific role rarely pick their own job titles.
I also dislike the term. It feels concocted to evoke “tacticool” vibes.
Unless you’re pushing new firmware onto a drone in Ukraine, FDE is stolen valor.
