Yes, and all of them really are "professionals" at what
they do. It's just that some words have a tendency to
evoke different impressions from their dictionary definitions. I suspect, for example, that most artistic
painters or sculptors would refer to themselves as
"crafters," even though the dictionary definition is
perfectly correct, because the word most evokes
mental images of people making leather key holders
from kits or candy dishes from old LPs.
