Have you even bothered to check the methods used for this survey ?

Since when was electronics not a field of science ?

It's a fairly subtle difference, but an important one as regards such things
as approach and mindset. Science is the field of using the scientific
method (you know, hypothesize, test, repeat) to try to discover thruths
about the universe. Electronics in the sense of designing and building
electronic devices like computers is more a field of engineering than
science--i.e., it's a field that uses the results of science to do and make
cool things that people want. Electronics in this sense does use the
results of the sciences of solid state physics, chemistry, etc., and there
can be use of the scientific method involved in designing electronic
circuits (hypothesize, build, test, repeat), but it's really more an
engineering mindset.
