I'm trying to keep a middle path with regards to this. For some people, it's advantageous to know it's based on Drupal. For other people (which I hope will be majority of the target market), they'll just go "Huh? What's that and why do I care?", so I'm trying not to scare the former away with too much jargon.
For the latter, they'll find out the fact soon enough. It is clearly stated elsewhere on the site and in ProsePoint itself.

If you're doing blogs, then editions are unnecessary. However, I believe there are potential users out there who think they want editions-type functionality, whether because they migrated from print media, or they're publishing a monthly magazine, or for whatever reason (maybe the pointy haired boss said so :). If you look at some existing newspaper websites, their story listings are more than just a chronological ordering.
So, this is just a case of doing what (I perceive that) the users want.
Editions also provides two features over blogs: Convenient ahead-of-time scheduling of stories, and complex layouts. I can't quite imagine being able to do easily with a blog without some sort of customised functionality.
Furthermore, with ProsePoint, you can use both editions scheduling and blogs (but for different channels), so I leave it up to the user to choose.
