ok, there's a whole bunch of pedantic posturing going on now...
(there's that word again)
I think we can all agree that the OP used "pop" in the sense of "not art music", rather than "pertaining to the Pop school of music".
In the same way that one would say that "Debussy and Ravel are classical composers", while "Mozart and Haydn are Classical composers".
OK, so we know, there are two uses for each of those terms.
At LEAST, argue over the merits of the OP's heinous comments, not over the minutiae of definition of style not included in the original post!

In musical criticism, when issues of craft and technical consideration are set aside, what remains is more subjective. However, until technical issues are dealt with, the subjective portion bears considerably less weight.
