Why do you think a recreational pilot is more serious about flying
than a hobby pilot? Usually, you call a recreational activity a hobby
when you start to pursue it more seriously.

So, you just choose to call yourself a hobby pilot for no reason?

You can read, can you? I call myself a hobby pilot because piloting is a
hobby of mine. Unlike e.g. lying on the sofa, which I also ocasionally
practise for recreational reasons, but which I wouldn't call a hobby.
