Using MIEE or FIEE designatory letters

Can anyone explain why people still use these.  If you moved over to IET from IEE can you still use these.  I see it all the time and I wonder why they do not use MIET and FIET

    Some members still prefer to use MIEE or FIEE because they were given to graduates (or equivelant) in EE related subjects of electrical, electronic, computer and communication (telecommunication) engineering; whereas MIET and FIET are awarded to members, working at graduate level, in a wider field of interest. They may include subjects like programming, physics, chemistry, biology, nanotechnology and so on. In addition, one doesn't need a degree to join at MIET; experience to degree level is sufficient.



    It could be said that MIEE represents a learnerd professional with a pedigree (branch of physics) whereas MIET represents someone with a mixed background of knowledge.
