I have the same problem with the binary of 'skilled' and 'unskilled' work. All work takes practice and commitment to really get good at it. It seems to me like it's all just a way to overvalue a select few people's contributions by undervaluing a lot more people's hard work and dedication.

I could not agree more with you on this. There is always a symbiotic relationship that everyone needs to understand.

One can not do without the other. We all have to chase our passions and It is just fine if they differ. Let's not shame anyone for doing whatever they so choose to do.
