I think you are grossly missing the point.

That AI can do it better - by what dimension? - than the priests is arguable, but the reason for a priest to write one is reflection, connection..

Have you ever considered that possibly performing something is not only a mean to some output but that the process is the thing?

That may or may not translate to your coding analogy, but for the article comment you pose, I think you are way off.
