Good photography is so much more than megapixel density of a sensor. In some cases, people don't want the photo to be super sharp (e.g., would show blemishes on a face). Additionally, there are some who make their photos look as much like a painting as possible. Why? Because they aren't going for maximum detail. Instead they're going for a certain look or 'feel'.
Digital photography has done wonders for the average person by way of the smartphone. However, I would argue that except in very few instances, it hasn't necessarily made professional photography better (in terms of the final photo). By the way, I'm not saying that it hasn't brought some improvements to the process (it certainly has). There has been some phenomenal photographs produced before digital ever hit the scene. It has made it perhaps easier for the professional in that they can take more photographs in a specific span of time or have more dials to tune the style, but those things don't make the photographs automatically better.
