Well gee, it's not like we have 2,500 years of analysis across multiple cultures devoted to examination of stories in terms of their structures, themes, elements, fundamental execution, and relationship with the audience that just about any artist who works on more than a casual level participates in.
But storytelling is also not entirely clear cut. Different people like different things, and they will classify different things as 'good', partially for reasons of personal taste, partially for their cultural background and partially for some other reason all together.
"Personal taste" isn't criticism. It's superficial reaction. I love Star Trek, but it's never been the best written franchise (with the exception of Khan). I hate Lars von Trier movies but I can recognize what he's trying to do with them and admire how skillfully he does it as a director.
The point in talking about craft is that you want for the audience to love or hate the story for the story, not hate you because you half-assed that critical plot beat with a clunker of a scene that didn't do what you wanted.
