Those high end restaurants are more like art and exploration of food then something practical like code. The only similarity is maybe research in academia. There's not real industry uses of code that's like art.

I used the extreme of the spectrum, I can’t imagine you’re arguing that food is binary good / bad? There’s a litany of food options and quality, matching different business models of convenience and experience.

Research in academia seems less appropriate because that’s famously not really a business model, except maybe in the extractive sense

		Sometimes I think we're being argued against by LLMs. Critique of your example while missing the entire point of it.

		There's no equivalent of experience and art in code. Writing code is not expressing your self, and you don't pay for pushing the limits and experimenting with it. That's what high end restaurants are along with service they provide. As far as good or bad, how food is made is irreverent to the outcome if it's enjoyable.
