Don't waste your energy Tweak - my many, many valid points that were on topic were completely ignored (see: list of famous composers who did not play, links to scores, links to arrangements etc).
As i stated originally, I believe that MBTC has a very shallow and flawed definition of what music composition is. That's not a personal attack - just evidenced in what you've written across this thread and the fact that multiple posters have rebutted your points raised.
Some study might expand your perceptions and understanding - which is why I added links to some topics that could have helped. Few good books that could help you, Audio Culture (Readings in Modern Music), Electronic and Experimental Music, The Rest is Noise.
