I strongly disagree. How many compromises were made to pull this off. You may use the laws of physics and math to design something, but unlike physics or math, engineering is not as precise. that means there are judgment calls made by design engineers. Physicists make judgemet call also, but only in data interpretation and not design. Sorry you couldn't be more wrong.

That is NOT even slightly true. ART did not put us on the moon or build the 
Mars rovers. Engineering is the thoughtful application of scientific principles 
and knowledge to solve practical problems. Without science as a base, it's 
little more than the infinite number of monkeys and typewriters producing 
Shakespeare. Nearly all practical designs involve some compromises. Great 
engineering is selecting (sometimes innovating) those solutions which work well 
for the particular problem at hand.
