And there is the weird phenomenon of studio musicians - great skills, but no ideas?

[stener]

yes and that brings me to other professions as in the film industry. E.g. this year the Academy Award for best Music (Song) was won by movie Once, which on technical and execution side looks amateurish compared to Hollywood blockbusters. In this case, the idea won Oscar.

I think to compare different kind of artist and their craft among themselves is valid.

To be fair though, the execution in the category Once won for was superb. Note that they did not win for, say, cinematography.
