It kind of depends in which context someone is using the term “home studio”, on this forum I read a people claiming to have a “professional studio” that (in my opinion) is nothing more than a spare/office room with a couple of guitars, a Fractal unit, some studio monitors , FRFR and a laptop. Sounds to be like boasting because in that case the majority of people in this forum would own a professional studio.
Kind of reminds me of a former colleague who always managed to boast about stuff he owned. At one point he inherited an “Estate at a lake” where he had a boat dock bult for his new “ship”. This turned out to be a piece of land on holiday park with a mobile home on it. And the “ship” was a small sail boat. Absolutely nothing wrong with any of it but I just did not get why he felt the need to brag about it this way.
