You have a point: if you are proficient in one stack, then why don’t you specify it?

Yeah, that's important! You should specify what stack you've been working on

Specify it for tutorials - yes.
Specify it for your job title... I'd argue no.

I'm a full-stack developer. On my CV, in the description, I'll outline WHICH stack. But not in the title. "Fullstack developer" is still a valid title at any level. Most company's will only use 1 stack type, so having you specify your stack in your title would be unnecessarily convoluted.
