The market dictates what things mean, whether or not we agree with it. Is DevOps a position, a philosophy, a framework? According to the job market it can be any of things. In my experience interviewing for and working in SRE roles, most people are doing exactly what other people are saying in this discussion. A lot of SRE job descriptions are looking for people who do IaC to manage their cloud, handle CICD pipelines, and set up monitoring and alerting, all of which is ultimately a bunch of YAML (or JSON) with a bit of Terraform and Bash or Python.

Anyways, the point is it doesn't matter who is "right" or "wrong" and really we should be treating this role what it's being hired for, and as such education and training should reflect that.
