Yep - you can gut PPro's lib GUI just the same as P8.
I have no problem with that idea. I absolutely agree that it is impossible to build any component in such a way that everybody is satisfied. But the good thing is this is built with what is called "modularity in use". Modularity means you can add, delete, or swap components, and "in use" means it isn't just the manufacturer who can do it, but end users.
Architecturally, the fact that the lib GUI is a separate component that communicates with Poser via messages is a big boon here.
What I don't agree with is that Flex is a mistake. There are literally tens of thousands of P8 users who are very happy with the new library prefer it both for speed and ease of use. Some minority experience the opposite. That's the nature of the software business.
Renderosity forum reply notifications are wonky. If I read a follow-up in a thread, but I don't myself reply, then notifications no longer happen AT ALL on that thread. So if I seem to be ignoring a question, that's why. (Updated September 23, 2019)
