Power users are not necessarily devoted to your product, they might just have to use it. While a feature being targeted at power users is certainly not a reason to swat it down in itself, feature prioritization is usually based on impact. And it's usually easier to get impact by improving the satisfaction of a broader user base. That's why many product people tend to favor optimizing not for power user, not for beginners, but for the average user. (This whole discussion is kind of a red herring tbh). Of course, you need a balance, and getting people to really love a product often takes things such as smartly implemented power-user features.
