The servant-mercenary-artisan terms aren't really necessary.
A good maker is also servant - to a vision, a muse, a genius or an ideal; or to the pragmatic makers who are also sellers: to a market need, to customers.
The diagram for an employee is also a little misleading, as today, most employees will have a series of employers over time, just as a freelancer mostly have a series of projects over time (though they can have them simultaneously).
