Where do you draw the line? Do composers create?

It is not necessary to draw a sharp line that clearly divides everything before saying “this is too far” about something that has, in fact, gone too far.

Yes.

Does the guy who tells the composer "write a song" create?

No.

The line is somewhere in the middle

At what point of detail/complexity does my restaurant order transform me into the cook?

		Good question. Maybe not cook, but consider someone who picked just the right ingredients and preparation for a sandwich. Combining flavors and textures in novel ways that are as surprising as they are delicious. I would ascribe more of the creative credit to that person vs. the one cutting the bread.
