Yeah but you understand that I'm not using the distinction in the way that Renaissance bourgeois used it. More so the Arts and Crafts movement way. We have to treat it like a real distinction, regardless of origins, because it's now economic reality. The artisans were laid off, fired, and couldn't find work. At that point it's not just a philosophical construct. The same thing is still happening with game devs.

I understand now, thanks for clearing that up!
