It is considered homeowner, but it is built on the same pro grade crankcase as the 357xp without the bells on the crankshaft. Just different top ends.

if it needs a top end would it be worth the 357xp top end?  would it just be a jug and piston swap

Husky calls the 359 a "Landowner" saw. Shares some features with pro saws (including the fact that it's easier to work on than the homeowner saws). I know of at least one school that uses 359s for their forestry student classes. A solid saw that doesn't break the bank.
