It reminds me of the creative work in the arts.   E.g. in music its 
sounds like the difference between the composer and the performer.   
Both highly creative.  But with a very different meaning to the same 
word.  The composer brings something into being out of nothing.   The 
performer expresses, interprets and redefines.   Without the performer 
music is  just a number of black dots on paper.   Without the composer 
its eine kleine nachtmusik and classic FM at infinitum. 

But the two processes tend to require different mindsets, aspirations 
and attitudes.  I'm very much of the first phase, while my wife (a  
clarinettist) is the  second type - artistic, creative,  structured.    

Given the importance of SD we can not afford to leave it a theoretical 
excercise.  We have to train and mobilize a generation of "performers".
