Why is there such a thing called Computer Science? Shouldn’t all computer stuff be called computer engineering?

As i understand it, Science is basically making sense of nature and natural laws/phenomenons. Way is it called computer science even though humans literally invented the machine and (as a species) know everything there is to know about it?

The term computer is literal.

It is a device that computes data, normally math.

So computer science isn’t the science of the modern device is known as personal computers but is rather the science of computing itself.
