I’m going to ignore the first half of this post because you completely missed the point of the Ten Commandments example. I suspect you’re just actually that dense and aren’t being intentionally obtuse or feigning confusion.
You aren’t a thing only when you’re actively doing it
Of course not. But you’re definitely not a thing if you don’t do that thing at all.

Who the fuck was arguing that you are?
Again…read up like 2 posts back. That’s the entire point here. Remember? If you don’t play music, you can’t call yourself a musician. If you don’t golf, you can’t claim to be a golfer. Are you really that dense? I genuinely can’t tell if you’re a troll at this point.
You got lost in your own maze of words by saying that “you can’t claim to be a musician if you don’t play an instrument”, and now we’re here.
It’s still stupid, your criteria for being considered a musician is still fucking awful.
If I were you I would’ve pivoted to say “alright, fair enough, you aren’t a musician unless you play or compose music” and that would be somewhat closer to a common sense definition of the word (oh wait, but those can’t exist, everyone plugs into the dictionary or their nearest holy text in order to decipher meaning), but you like to continue to trip over your own feet for some reason and so you’ve brought us here: to trying to define what a musician isn’t.
A topic precisely nobody gives a shit about BTW.
You’re a weird little fuck I’ll give you that (if you aren’t just a malfunctioning chatbot).
