Do they demonstrate creativity, or is that just us romanticizing it? Maybe these games really are just reducible to numbers at the end of the day.

They do in the sense that choices are so far off what's known good "based on the numbers". How else do we define creativity? With the brute force search tree being roughly 191^lookahead and outcome being life/death of a groups of stones that depend on distantly neighboring influences, it's hard to call it simply computation.
