Just to be explicit, and correct me if I’m wrong in my understanding, but your argument was:

1. Prompting is not creation.

2. Therefore prompting cannot lead to joy.

For this argument to work, you’re implicitly also claiming that

1.5 Only activities that involve creation can lead to joy.

My counterexamples (if you agree with them, but you say you do) show that this latter statement is not true.

So if you’d like to show that “prompting cannot lead to joy”, you need to fix up your proof. I’m not claiming that you’re wrong! But the reasoning gave cannot possibly be correct.
