To turn around your statement, you said : session handlers are bad
because audio engineers are to stupid to use them ?
Or do you mean : we didn't have to have session handlers because the
others didn't have them to ?

Again turn it around, do you mean that all linux audio stand alone
applications, except Ardour and Qtractor are non Professional and at
least only a wast of time, and they have to be plugins for those 2
Master Applications, it shouldn't be allowed to them to run outside of
them, application connections with jack is a bad idea, do you mean
that ? Do you believe that non of them are in use in any Professional
Audio Studio ?

No, the point is that innovations need to be done, and sometimes you
need to walk on new way's to get them done. Otherwise, you can still sit
down and do what you ever do, without the need of learn something new.
But if you have made your feats wet, you see fast a bunch of possible
new ways and will walk on.

For me, Pro Audio means a bit more then that, so definitions could
differ.

So, professional work wouldn’t happen on high level ?
