Aren't technology and engineering basically the same thing and math a subset of science?

Tech refers to computer technology. Which, I suppose, a subset of engineering. But it’s as if a tree begat and an entire other tree. Anyways, engineering is just a child of mathematics, and science is a heuristic which can apply to all of these.

Engineering is a mixture of applied mathematics and applied sciences, but often with very different focus from what either of those two would do on their own. For example, mathematicians may study the same sorts of systems of differential equations a control systems engineer would study, but a controls engineer would be studying different properties of the system (e.g., engineers study observability of the states of interest, controllability and stability under different input schemes or signal flow arrangements vs. mathematicians study existence and uniqueness of classes of solutions rather than anything about particular solutions).
