First, let's get something clear:

I'm NOT talking about a degree/cert.

I'm talking about a DESIGNATION.  This is NOT a degree or a certification.

It would be an acknowledgement that a person understands computing concepts up to a baseline level.  Not that a person understands C, or C++, or whateve.

So?  Even though it's low, I'd say it's pretty important work.

Again, a desig would consist of experience/education.

The ColdFusion cert is useless.  But, since we're talking about a designation, and not a certificate, this is moot.
