I think you've raised a good point. I appreciate that every discipline wants to present itself in the best possible light. Claiming to be "creative" is one way. As a math major, I certainly felt that I was more creative than those students in other fields. Abandoning that idea is a benefit of old age. ;-) And every discipline also claims "there will be a worker shortage in our field soon" and "what we really teach is critical thinking."
