I just don't feel we want the overhead on software. I'm in an industry with PEs and I have beef with the way it works for physical things.

PII isn't nearly as big a deal as a life tbh. I'd rather not gatekeep PII handling behind degrees. I want more accoubtability, but PEs for software seems like it's ill-suited for the problem. Principally, software is ever evolving and distributed. A building or bridge is mostly done.
