My point was simply that most endeavours, including brain surgery, are
about learning methods and following procedures. There are clearly
different skill sets involved in being a good baker and good web page
author. To describe them at the level on the referenced web page is
not helpful because the similarities are superficial and could be
applied to anything.

I don't think that most brain surgeons or rocket scientists are any
different from the rest of us. I agree that, occasionally, there is a
"true, original breakthrough" but it can happen in any field, probably
including baking cakes.
