> Is it the whole GIMP vs Photoshop non-debate?

I think it is not. I would say Blender is at professional level.

It is not like GIMP or Inkscape that I can hardly call them professional.

Many Blender users coming from other 3D sofware often said that Blender UI is weird and stop them from using it further. I guess it is a matter of habit.

That's the same feeling I had of Blender, hence I put them into the category of GIMP.

The problem with blenders UI isn't that it's bad as such, it just does everything different to other programs.

It's worth the effort to learn though, it's a hugely productive UI once you get used to it.
