I just think that most UX designers share the UI design responsibility, so it’s not that distinct of a job.
Your initial comment above came off as hostile to UX designers, which is why I felt the need to reply. Afaiu UX design as a discipline, particularly in software, appeared around the nineties to early two-thousands, likely influenced by industrial design (namely Don Norman himself) — so it’s not quite an ‘emerging’ discipline, but it’s surely vague.

Nah, I’m married to one. I just share her grief over grifters wearing the title without actually doing the job well and giving the whole guild a bad name.
Incidentally, that might also be why I’m so aware of the distinction (on paper) between the responsibilities. As you say, the actual job is usually fused from both responsibilities, which makes sense because it skips a step between UX analysis and UI design.
