I get a lot of "I know it when I see it" responses. Even more comparisons between bonsai and sculpture and painting.
It is the same when I ask "How does one create art in bonsai"
How come one hardly ever sees a major artist in one of these discussions ?.
Is there a difference between creating art and just talking about creating art ?.
etc., etc., etc.....

Maybe Barry was right about the broken record after all. He just called it before it happened. Sorry, Barry!
