Yes, but the day your wife leaves you, you forget once due to being 
pre-ocuppied and now you're fired as well. Damn, going downhil fast.

I personally don't see much of a difference between pro and consumer either, 
but the other way around: _generally_ non muted (that is, without the user 
having told us that is what she wants through saved settings) is simply 
irresponsible.
