The recipe is part of the work, but the larger part of the work in doing it right would be replacing "the" recipe with a system for generating recipes and determining the quality of recipes.

You can go as meta as you want, as long as the result is still a better recipe I still call it "work for the recipe" ;-)

Fair! (Though I do want to make clear that part of my point is ensuring customization support is the backbone, rather than a feature added later.)
