I don't really get how this is a counter point. I don't think anyone is contending that the pictures produced are reproducible by the same means. They're contending that the method of production isn't "making" art and they aren't an artist for starting the production process.
It's sort of like when rich people go to space and call themselves an astronaut. People have an idea of what an astronaut does and it isn't just "space tourist." If you fired back with "you try spending that much money and see how easy it is" then that wouldn't answer the point of why people don't want to call space tourists "astronauts."
I don't think their point was just that it's impossible to reproduce, more that there is skill, knowledge and choice put into getting close to the intended idea when working with AI output.
With that I think your point breaks down when you compare it with something like photography. Often you aren't 'making' the images that you capture, but there is skill and artistry in the choices that capture the moment or picture you want. Obviously there is more control in photography, and I would disagree with anyone that uses AI and claims the same level of artistry of photography. But ultimately I think the lines around art are so blurry in general, it seems incorrect to me to do decidedly exclude AI generated images.
