The highest form of knowledge is empathy, for it requires us to suspend our egos and live in another's world. It requires profound, purpose‐larger‐than‐the‐self kind of understanding.

You can't double down on your nonsensical claim, I mean I suppose you can? but it's not helping. The quickest search, Google is on my side. The freaking dictionary is on my side. You couldn't be more wrong if you tried.

Professional singer/songwriters are working with deadlines, which doesn't allow for much noodling around. They have projects to start, create and finish. Opposite of what a DAW does for the typical hobbyist that noodles around with incomplete songs for years.
None of what you wrote here has anything to do with the creative process, and how it works. Professionals often start a song by throwing out years and years worth of "noodling around" into a DAW, on a guitar, keys whatever. Improvising to find a part that works for a scene in a movie for instance; youtube is filled with creatives showing ideas they toss out to start over from scratch, and all on a deadline.

You've sold yourself on some serious BS beliefs.
You can try and force people to uphold what something originally stood for, but it's a losing cause. Time changes everything, and so has this once simple genre. Just as someone mention the word "producer" is now synonymous with producing music and not the original role of yesteryear. Some people let little things like that bother them, I could careless what people categorize things as. The finished song will always speak for itself.

Now you're talking about the creative process, much different then actually composing a song with structure and arrangement. The long process and development of song craft is the furthest thing from noodling around as you can go. Most professional songwriters work off notes, journals, phones and other means of jotting down ideas that will later be developed during writing sessions. Which usually doesn't include the DAW at this point, that comes later when you're actually tracking and mixing the song.

In the music industry, time is money. That means noodling around is for dinner, because you'll be eating Ramen noodles as a starving artist until you "make it".

That's exactly the reason, if you have to explain it to the common folk, they will always resort to the easiest thing to remember, EDM.

He also lost his penis and developed breasts in the future, so where are we going with this?

Just trying to show you a modern day example of how things change from their original definitions.

i know things change
but, surely you will agree, not all electronic music is made for dancing?
so, is the d superfluous? or does the d now stand for something different? or does dance mean something new to the kids on the street?

need input::data inadequate
