I think Scribus was mentioned as an alternative to MS Publisher.

Scribus and Indesign are for professionals. MS Publisher is not.

Yes, Scribus could do anything Publisher can as it provides a superset of features compared to the latter. But I think it would be confusing for people that don't understand color profiles, offset press and all the relevant stuff professionals care about. The bells and whistles are there for a reason.
