I totally disagree. Unless word "craftsmanship" means something
different than "profession" and that difference escapes me.
Here is an example:
I hired a contractor to build a house. He was good enough to build
a structure, but his work didn't show any craftsmanship.
So, while his "profession" is carpentry, he is not a craftsman.
You probably know of a few examples of poorly written software,
that could have been improved upon if the person who's profession
it was to write the software was a "craftsman" as well.
We recently extended our apartment into the attic, and we had a good
craftsman. I was surprised to see that he bought his tools in the
same cheap shop that I did.
I love anecdotal evidence .-)
