I think you are simplifying all the reasons and he never said that poser sucks. Also all the pros and cons didn't fit under his business model so it wasn't financially feasible for him to do a Poser version. As a person that needs to pay bills, I respect anyone that can find a niche for a business opportunity, create a plan and implement it on his own. That's how a Democracy works. Many people in different areas do the same thing and we shouldn't him criticize him for something he may not think it is feasible for him. Doing that by yourself is a big undertaking to get right which I'm sure people involved in the LuxPose project are aware of. 

I have a copy of both Poser  7 and Daz Studio, but I spend most in Daz Studio because that fits my workflow. When I create something, I run it through both programs and I understand it's all about choice.. similar to when people argue about Macs and PC (Have several of each too). 

I'm going to sit down with Poser soon and go through the material room to get a better understanding of how it works and how to do things, and it's great to have two programs that can share the same content and it great to have as many tools in my belt to help me in my work. 

I'm following the LuxPose exporter with great interest as well, because it would be yet another tool for  me to use, but what troubles me is amount of arguing and insulting that goes on here and pissing matches that I hit upon each thread. All that will do is delay or halt development and we're all grown people and should treat each other as such. When you get down to it, we use the same content and we have the same love for this craft and we should act as such.

As for Paolo's tool, I'm having a blast with it and some of the renders I've done have pretty much blown me away... it's also shown me that not all content is created equal. ;)

I look forward to the same functionality with LuxPose and seeing what I can do with it.
