Suppose somebody decides they want to rotate the figure to face south instead of north after applying your pose. If you've positioned it by using the hip, it won't rotate on the spot, instead it will rotate around the place where the figure would be if you hadn't translated the hip, so the figure winds up moving to a completely different part of Poser space. Very irriating. They can try to get around it by rotating the hip instead of the body, but if you've bent the hip or rotated it sideways (either of which you'd probably do to some extent in most poses) then it won't y-rotate around the vertical. Instead it rotates around the local y axis of the hip. So it winds up being a major exercise just for the user to get the figure to face a different direction.
