From Randy Mosher's Radical Brewing
paraphrasing....'when a homebrewer (current or former) makes the ultimate decision of what the beer will taste like it's craft beer'
I think he is drawing a line in that the second the bean counters make a decision regarding recipe formulation or process such as to only carry 5 specialty malts and cut your hop budget and say you must choose 1 house yeast strain etc, it's no longer craft. In this respect the size of a brewery has nothing to do with it.
