  It's like saying "creativity isn't music"..which is true as far as it goes..but some of the most influential musicians know jack about music theory, or throw it out the window when doing their most innovative and powerful work.

  Just cause a jazz pianist could reel off theoretically chord changes or a guitarist could run up and down scales at hyperspeeds doesn't make it "music".

  I find the people that make the arguments relating the theoretical aspects of a body of knowledge to actual competence in that same area tend to be over-educated, creatively thwarted twits who are disciples of some influential figure in their lives. Except for the rare few geniuses who are both theoretically competent enough to ignore all of it in their work.
