seems to be the one to apply, then, doesn't it? And it applies to natural phenomena, doesn't it?

Well if you really wanna apply to that..

Otherwise, it's just one of the MANY meanings.

So, I ask again. Why not call someone with a degree in, say, painting a scientist?

Ask again? Sounds to me like your asking this one for the first time.. anyways, degree in Computer Science doesn't make you a scientist or a computer scientist lol.. it makes you a Computer Programmer, Software Engineer, Systems Analyst, Web Developer etc therefore, a degree in painting doesn't make him a scientist either but that could make him an artist thou since the degree in painting would be classified as a degree in Fine Arts

Now I ask a better question, would you pronounce "put" the same way you'd pronounce "but" if not, why not?
