Why are the terms 'consumer' and 'professional' used to denote two
different worlds ? Because the requirements, expectations, price
tags, and potential consequences are different for both types of
user. As a professional, I may be inclined to pay some k$ for
something that will enhance my business. As a professional I
may be prepared to work to imposed quality standards, even if
that is less entertaining or practical and requires discipline.
Denying that this difference exists is a postmodern trend, but is
misguided (IMHO).
