Prompt engineering is not easy. Getting something as good as a real artist's work is very hard, especially if you're not an artist. Of course actual art is going to win every time.

Prompt “engineering” goes to show that you can stick the word engineer on the end of anything to make it sound official and important. Talking to a chatbot is not engineering of any sort

The trick is the artist invested time

Yeah, not only promting, but adjusting temperature, combining different checkpoints and loras, addding additional steps to upscale, redraw certain parts etc.

In the end its very much just a numbers game though, see if you got lucky after 100+ images
