I hate these Mott and Bailey arguments.

The discussion was about professional use. Then you moved the goalposts.

Gimp is still not an alternative to Ps. Not even close.

I was responding to your comment specifically, which didn't mention anything about professional use, and if you'll re read it, you'll find that I said "it depends on what you're doing with it", which even if you were talking about professional use, my statement perfectly aligns with your position. I even said to your average person (i.e. not someone using it professionally) it's fine.

No need to get defensive and whip out terms from debate class, especially if the statement isn't even a debate.
