MODERATORS
They can do both.
Specialization of Labor is what society is built upon, and it actually allows society to work on multiple problems all at once.
"Engineer" is not a magical term. The people working on improving aerodynamics can't just stop doing that and switch gears to focus on chemistry, materials, process improvements, or software.
Complaining that these engineers aren't fixing the pollution from air travel is like complaining that they aren't delivering the mail, preventing shoplifting, or solving the Hollywood strikes.
