I agree with the spirit of this view in general - (particularly in terms of labor that overlaps with established labor unions, regular trades) - but I wonder how it would apply to non-commercial creative acts and activity, such as folk-music/underground-music production, tape culture, open-source software etc. Would we say that only commercially/market motivated art and tool-making is allowed? That would definitely have a narrowing effect on the variety of forms being generated in the world.
