Some video editors seek to be the right tool for amateurs wanting to make simple edits.

What I take away from “professional” in this context is that it targets professional workflows and capabilities.

It's only a target at this point. This tool doesn't seem to be currently used by professionals in a professional setting so it is not a professional tool. It may become one, one day, and I which them the best, but it is not.
