It really just leaves us arguing the finer points of what the definition of craft is. Could you argue that knitting isn't really a craft as most people just want sweaters that work over sweaters that show some amount of professional craftsmanship quality? What about coffee tables since Wal-Mart sells cheap coffee tables and people generally own cheap coffee tables that must mean that woodworking isn't a craft.
ugh... we may as well argue the merits of calling something 'Art' with one side holding firmly to the position of since I consider it art it therefore becomes art because art becomes art once someone identifies it as art.
As for the artistic nature of code I'm reminded of reading someone's quote years ago "On a whim one afternoon I decided to browse the source-code for Nethack. I looked at it, and it looked back at me, and I was afraid"
