An analogy: Though often called sheet music, this is not by itself “music”. This requires an instrument to enable people to hear the music. This score is akin to a image “data file” in that both require an “instrument” to interpret the information before people can appreciate what is written.

Good analogy in general, but I know at least two people who can look at a sheet of music and hear it. I am not one of them, and I will admit that it is a rare talent.

And that versus a recording of an musical performance while you need a player, and amplifier and speakers to play it, it's the music that's already been made. The player, amplifier and speakers only need to reproduce the music as faithfully as possible and there is no interpretation needed.

But the conductor does make a difference.
Same thing with Director in musical theatre - the {zany}"Guys and Dolls" we saw "off Broadway" was very different from the {done to script} "Guys and Dolls" we saw a couple years later by a local high school.

I meant the score is different from a recording. The recording is fixed like JPEG. The score is like a RAW that needs to be performed by musicians and conducted by the conductor. Depending on the creative idea of the conductor and musician the score can be performed quite differently.

That is exactly what I meant also - the artist can reflect reality or s/he can do whatever reflects his/her mood.

Okay, I wasn't sure which of us you were referring to so, I looked

If the proofs agree with the data then one can assume that the data is correct.

OK Have you ever sent a RAW file to a printing service for prints?

No. There are hundreds of file formats that are not commonly accepted by print services.
