It's hilarious to me that people think it's harder to play some power chords than it is to make an album like My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy. But just because they're playing a guitar...it's music
Having created music on both mediums, I can tell you it's much harder on guitar. It sometimes takes years to become proficient enough on guitar to write quality stuff. With the computer software it really only takes a few days.
It's really the difference between pushing a button that instantly produces a lasagna or making a lasagna from scratch. One could call themselves a cook, the other could not

It's definitely not automatically harder on guitar. It's a lot easier to play power chords than to make a great electronic piece or beat. Just as it's a lot easier to make a bad beat than play a complicated guitar piece. But it's all making music.

Oh, so since you brought up cooking, I guess all modern day chef's don't really know how to 'cook" because they don't know the art of building a proper fire and cooking without gas / electricity, which takes a lot more skill than simply pressing a button or turning a knob to get the proper temperature. Give me a break... Some instruments are harder to learn than others. That doesn't mean anything when it comes to the quality of the end product. You could be a guitar virtuoso and still just write music that people consider "noise."
You are talking about the process of creating music (cooking) instead of music (food) itself, which is a completely different subject.
