I don't know, I'd see it more like the actual pinhole has its own
personality and that can be either strong/assertive or weak/passive. If its
strong then it is able to interact with the container it finds itself in to
transform it into a camera. If its weak then the container remains a
oatmeal box/ paint can/ cooking pot etc... and a weaker image is produced,
this might be more desirable depending on the circumstances and the image
you are trying to make. Of course, they're both cameras in the strict sense
of the word.
