Yeah I think we do, but I'm not really bothered about this either way - someone who really needs this feature to work can press it.

You've missed the top level files then, in RuntimeLibraries!DAZVictoria 4 (for example):
V4headChnnls.pz2
readScript ":Runtime:libraries:!DAZ:Victoria 4:head:05-ps_pe069_DAZ_Chnnls.pz2"
readScript ":Runtime:libraries:!DAZ:Victoria 4:head:05-ps_pe070_DAZ_Chnnls.pz2"
** readScript ":Runtime:libraries:!DAZ:Victoria 4:head:05-ps_pe082_Chnnls.pz2"
** readScript ":Runtime:libraries:!DAZ:Victoria 4:head:05-ps_pe085_Chnnls.pz2"
readScript ":Runtime:libraries:!DAZ:Victoria 4:head:05-ps_pe077_Chnnls.pz2"
readScript ":Runtime:libraries:!DAZ:Victoria 4:head:05-ps_pe073_Chnnls.pz2"
readScript ":Runtime:libraries:!DAZ:Victoria 4:head:05-ps_mr259_Chnnls.pz2"
readScript ":Runtime:libraries:!DAZ:Victoria 4:head:05-ps_pe069inj_Chnnls.pz2"
the updater evidently writes this file (and all the others) when it is run, based on contents of those subdirectories named by each bodypart - these files are in turn read in by the CR2. This allows the original DAZ-written CR2 to be generic. The same goes for the groups for each body part.
I would thank you for pressing me to figure this out but - err -tbh I didn't really want to know this.
edit: a theory on why this took daveso 4 tries to make it work - shitty programming on DAZ's part
