There you go. I guess you'll have to switch now since you say it reduces
to just
this one thing. Just show you one pro that uses a P&S camera.

That's just one. I'm another. So are many others.

How sad that you set your equipment criteria by what others are using.
Can't you
think for yourself? Do you only take photos of subjects that others have
already
photographed too? If nobody else has photographed that subject in the same
way
then it must not be worth photographing according to the way you choose
things.
If I did that I'd find another career.

One person on dpreview who regularly provides work for house & home and
architectural photojournalism magazines regularly slips in photos from his
P&S
cameras. The publishers and editors never notice any difference in his
work. He
doesn't want them to know that he's using his P&S cameras for most of his
photography due to the stigma that people like you have attached to them.
Then
he wouldn't be a "professional" photographer, right?

Just because they don't say they use them for their professional work
doesn't
mean that they don't use them for that.
