I didn't say otherwise, I'm explaining why most modelers (i.e. people) won't do that type of thing EXCEPT when dealing with Poser or other Reyes renderers. It just doesn't occur to them.
Laurie, different applications may handle it in different ways, but OBJ format is vertices (points or "v" entries) and face declarations ("f" entries).
Well that's basically what I was telling Kaibach in PM - that not only did it not occur to him, but he refused to believe it was possible, and called me a smug bastard, and pointed out that I should listen to him because he's an experienced modeler.
The point I was trying to make was that experienced modelers are bounded by their belief systems to the point that they cannot understand a simple truth - there are no n-gons here.
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)
