I agree this 'pro' term is nonsense. 'Professional' means you do it for a
living, people wrongly attach some judgement of quality to that. Being an
amateur means doing it for the love of it, which is a noble thing.
I think that's all of us isn't it?
Not for a living, just for money, although I do tend to agree that your
definition makes more sense. College athletes in the US are considered
professional and barred from NCAA competition if they are paid for
competing. The judgment of quality is that the product is supposed to
be good enough for professional use - which may or may not be the case.

What about if we here and now invent the term "pro linux audio" and
define it to include all of the above?! ;)
I've always hated the word "pro", in almost context it has no real
meaning, just marketing sizzle.
But, that would reduce your suggestion to just "linux audio", which we
already have. :-)
