Apple scaling back Final Cut Pro to appeal more to Prosumers

I've used Final Cut for various projects for nearly 2 years, and while it does have its drawbacks, I think it is a very capable piece of software. Since it's so widely used in video and film production, I think it's a poor decision by Apple to, in essence, cripple the Final Cut Suite by appealing to the prosumer market. If it's really not making that much money for Apple anymore, wouldn't it be better to sell it off to another business that can keep it going?
What do you FCP editors think of this?
