I'm not sure I understand point #2. I mean, what does having a one-on-one deal have to do with being a professional? I think the population at large

"one-on-one".  Or, perhaps we need humpty-dumpty to define "one-on-one"?

I think the most important part of #2 is the "the client can't tell if the work is right" portion rather than the one-on-one portion.

But if you look at the fields that are unquestionably Professional (with a capital P), almost all of them do end up involving a lot of one-on-one work. Even if a large Law or Engineering firm, it's still one-on-one for most work.


Maybe for law, but for professional engineering, the clients are typically large corporate or government entities; the projects are things like buildings, bridges, and electrical netwrks; and the ultimate responsibility is to the public. Not sure how that's one-on-one.
