Well I mentioned that business is what regulates professional photography but my point was different, so I didn't want to go on any tangents.
Since you mentioned it, I wanted to mention that I looked at Photography degree curiculums around Columbus (Ohio State University, Wright State University, Columbus State Community College) and even in the case of CSCC, the community college, which offeres a 2year degree in Digital Photography, has significant requirements in marketing, business, and communication for just these reasons.
I believe an important distinction is being missed in this threat -- a good photographer versus a successful photographer; not mutually inclusive.
Business has a lot to do with poor/average/mediocre photographers being successful.
