Any discussion about the definition of words is pointless. If your definition of 'art' or 'creativity' differs from mine that is no problem as long as we are aware of that. The practical consequence is that if we want to debate we should either agree on one definition and use that without any implicit emotional connotation, or use two words, e.g. 'PS-art' and 'FA-art'. There are no canonical definitions of these words, people tend to use a definition that agrees with their vision on those things. The real debate is about those visions, not the meaning of words.
