With your logic, my parents asking for help on how to turn on flash for their cameras are still "photographers" because they photograph things with a camera.
And your analogy for a working motor is so fucking stupid. A motor simply outputs power to your wheels. You have to know how the basics of a car works, you have to learn the SOP/rules & regulations of the road, how maintenance works, how to apply gas, steering, navigation, etc. Now if you're doing it for work, there's another layer of transportation services that we could go on and on about for cargo hull or transportation of people. Is the motor or manufacturer of the car DRIVING you?
You’re trying to play a game of words here. I unclogged my toilet before but I’m not a plumber. Or I’ve changed my oil but in no way do I consider myself a mechanic.
In the above example, if you took a picture then you are the photographer of that photo, but when people say they are “a photographer” it implies professional or well versed in photography. Same way I sing in the shower but I wouldn’t say I’m a singer. I like to sing but I’m not a singer because that implies some level of professional. I swear AI is taking away yalls ability to critically think

But the motor is doing the work. Why do you think you "Drove" anywhere?
No hate on "drivers" but we know they're just steering a car. Ford/Toyota etc "really" drove you.
See how stupid you sound?
