IMO, this is also why we have "computer science"... as if computers were found in nature and we were trying to 'reverse engineer' how they are made; which is ridiculous!
engineering, technology, computers, are not well covered by neither philosophy of arts nor sciences; if anything math's philosophy gets closer; but it's just a branch of phil. of science.
Computer Science is a branch of pure math, and arguably pure math is found in nature and we're just reverse engineering its laws.
e.g., modus ponens is real, but a Turing Machine is not. We can reason about it logically but we didn't discover it, we made it up. Maybe the same can be said about numbers.
If that's not a proof of its "realness", then I don't know what possibly could be.
In Northern and Central European countries, it is call datalogic or informatics. Your analogy holds only when you tell it in English.
also, what does informatics have to do with philosophy, andor phil. of engineering?
"computer science" does not contain the words "computer" in many languages
