Since education is the main economic driver of calculator sales, the smooth integration of Home and CAS will not happen. I have agitated for a "Pro" version of the Prime- no real hardware differences, just different case colors and no test LEDs- but I'm not holding my breath.

I believe that we will have to turn to the likes of Swiss Micros for calculators that appeal to enthusiasts and professional users. The HP of old sadly no longer exists.

I understand. But that as i wrote above this separation can be solved by a setting inside one joint environment (the user can the set a flag in settings to turn CAS functionality off - like exam mode that turns on a green LED light in front of the calculator case that the teacher can see), instead of like today, with two completely separate, incompatible environments.
