A person who does hypothesis-driven experiments and communicates the results in one way or another (that's my working definition, it does imply that scientist is a transient state and that 6 yo's summer experiment reports are science, but that's the point)

A scientist is one who thinks like a scientist, whose epistemology is grounded in evidence and reason rather than faith, magic, and mysticism. Being a scientist is a matter of degree, not a yes or no. It is an aspiration, not just a profession or a job.

And there's a difference (for better or worse) between being a scientist and being accepted as a scientist by a group of other scientists who are also deemed to be scientists by their scientist peers. That should clarify things.

For me it was when someone said ‘I dunno, you’re the scientist’
