It's a "sad holdover" from demonstrable differences in process and cause, as well as the effect and end product, but I'm sure your assessment of this is more accurate than my own. How people see these processes, or how they relate to them though, I'd agree with you on completely. Hell, some peoples ideas of what evolution or nature are a sad holdovers. Nature/evolution as block layer, decider, planner, designer, etc.
