You are assuming that information theorists are electrical engineers. I would disagree. There’s nothing inherently electrical in Information Theory (IT). The implementation of IT is usually electrical / electronic, but IT is much broader than EE.
The same applies to Control Theory, which is Engineering in the U.S. and Mathematics in Russia. I think the Russians are more honest.
