Couldn't agree more, but there's no real need to rig the figure in the usual way. You can simply run it through UVMapper Pro and create enough groups to be able to rig it so that it has a limited posability as a collection of props rather than a figure. The poly count is way too low for it to ever be a foreground or solo figure so this way should be more than adequate to help populate a crowd or street scene.
I recently had the problem of trying to create a scene depicting a row of shops complete with shoppers walking up and down the street. Using DAZ figures would have choked Poser to a standstill in short order.
