You know some pretty stupid engineers ...

Typical of you to call someone stupid when they simply
come from a different field and have different conventions
from your personal sacred cow definitions.

Which one is the vector?

P^ = E^ x H^ (where '^' denotes vectors) The vector
product (cross product) of two vectors is also a vector.
If E^ and H^ are vectors and their vector product is
power, then that power is a vector with magnitude and
direction. (I appologize if that fact bothers physicists.)

Does your power company deliver your 60Hz via laser?

The wavelength of 60Hz power is about 3000 miles but
it obeys Maxwell's equations just like all other
electromagnetic energy from DC to gamma rays.
