With this reply you again show you either have no idea of the reasons or 
you simply don't like the reasons and therefore decide to ignore them.

POV-Ray is an open program - if you are not happy with the way it works 
you have two options: change the way it works (which of course requires 
to understand the problem in the first place) or stop using it.  What 
you do instead is mostly unqualified mourning - when you state something 
like "for professional print work, ... , POV is not a suitable tool" or 
"I don't use povray for such work as it simply isn't practical" you 
should back this with some actual reproducible facts or refrain from 
stating it at all.
