Believe it or not, professionals are also consumers.
not when you're differentiating between "consumers" and "professionals" with regard to product classes, and in this context we're discussing a product specifically targeted at professionals, not consumers.
if you want to play word games, this isn't the place or time.
It's definitely not targeting professionals. The "Pro" name is just marketing nonsense they slap on every product in their lineup.
everything in the marketing for the product is clearly targeted at creative professionals.
Yes, the marketing targets professionals. The products do not.
you're playing childish word games again. the products are clearly targeted at professionals, regardless fo whether they fail to please them.
if all you have to add is petty contrarianism, stop wasting everyone's time.
I'm not playing "word games". This is much more than a semantics argument. Marketing is literally just bullshit brainwashing. The product blows, the company blows, and the consumers are sheep that regularly and repeatedly ensure the continued erosion of consumer rights.
from childish word games to childish name-calling. got it.
