I think :
> 3: Both are equally important, POV is the combination of the two.

Seeing POV-Ray as a "rendering engine" leads to the loss of too much
power.  In the French newsgroups, when a newcomer says "hey, I've just
downloaded POV-Ray and Moray..." , I always advice him (girls are rare
there too, sigh..) to try to make a quick tour of "pure" POV before
going to Moray, as, though Moray is fine, you risk to be aware of
only 20% of POV-Ray's abilities.

I'd like to think of POV-Ray as a "system", not just a language or
an engine.

BTW, I really meant 'answer #3', not 2 or 4 ! ;-)
(but your choices were arranged smartly enough to avoid confusion..)
