Sure most people expects to get a calculator which contains everything available and ready for use like goods on the shelves in stores, but the experience teachs how specialists, don't care if engineers technicians or workers, are inclined in building or adapting their best tools...... tailored for the excellence

I totally agree with you: IMHO Prime is designed as an educational tool, aimed to the learning of math., geometry, stat&prob, etc.
On the other side the 48-49-50 are clearly aimed to the professional, due to the great customizability and the lack of bells&wisthles....just like a Swiss knife.
IMHO the addition of CAS to the 49 and 50 has slightly "diluted" the professional content of such calcs trying to catch the educational market.

Just my two cents
