Bitcoin is a peer-to-peer electronic currency, just like Satoshi said. When people start calling it something else, like "a swarm of digital hornets", "digital gold", "art", "revolution" and so on, it suggests that it isn't doing well as currency, because otherwise people wouldn't need to create new narratives of what Bitcoin is.
You should not make heavy about how the Op tried to paint bitcoin. I do not think he means anything bad. It could he is trying to see bitcoin from the eye of an artist. I see what the Op said as a kind of poem on bitcoin. Poets have their way of saying things. Every other person that qualified bitcoin different from what Satoshi said it is not saying it because they are trying to rubbish bitcoin or Satoshi's statement of fact. It is only that they want to add more attributes to bitcoin on how it appeals to them.
