If you actually follow the dev, they don't seem to prioritize PSD or even trying to be a Photoshop clone at all :)
It's just that when a feature get introduced, a new feature from other format get supported. Such as upcoming vector layer and shape tool.
I believe jack-of-all-trades of images is actually a good thing. All newer image editor, whether FOSS or proprietary are jack-of-all trades, like Graphite or Affinity You just can't confined people just to use raster layer, and not vector layer. Or using multiple app just to do some image editing.
The problem is not jack-of-all-trades itself, but finding a good UI/UX to make it not complex for all user.
