Work that earns its product

Melakha could mean work that earns its product. The point is not creativity so much as earned results. 
God produces His side and delivers it to Man to dominate and steward but not to take to be his own. Shabbos divides God's melakha from Man's. It is distinct from the six days of working as acts of devising.
