It’s a cool story but not entirely true
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientist
Whewell proposed the word again more seriously (and not anonymously) in his 1840[31] The Philosophy of the Inductive Sciences:
The terminations ize (rather than ise), ism, and ist, are applied to words of all origins: thus we have to pulverize, to colonize, Witticism, Heathenism, Journalist, Tobacconist. Hence we may make such words when they are wanted. As we cannot use physician for a cultivator of physics, I have called him a Physicist. We need very much a name to describe a cultivator of science in general. I should incline to call him a Scientist. Thus we might say, that as an Artist is a Musician, Painter, or Poet, a Scientist is a Mathematician, Physicist, or Naturalist.
More than effort, I think the issue is that you have to be willing to make pretty big compromises in your tools and workflow, which is incompatible with a lot of creative persuits. I’m no Linux doubter/hater but even after conceding my DAW and half my plugins it still wasn’t up to scratch. Maybe one day!
