"but they also picked up some excess bits that don't quite fit (Bryce and Hexagon, ferinstance). In some of those cases, they did it out of (no, seriously) nostalgia (I'm pointing at Bryce), so as to avoid having the software end up in some larger corporation's graveyard."

Agreed!!
and I would Add that IMHO its time for DAZ to let go of those second hand projects that they likely bought for song and in some case and were probably negative purchases
I am talking specifically Bryce & Carrara
I honestly Dont know the history of Hexagon

Bryce is only relevant to its most die hard cult followers at this point ( I was once a die hard Brycer in the 1990's)and still have bryce 6  installed on my intel Mac just for admittedly "nostalgia".

But the fact of the matter is the various flavors of vue have Made bryce obsolete years ago for outdoor landscape renders.

Carrara? yet another vestigial artifact from the long dead metacreations kai Krause culture that should have been allowed to die its natural death years ago IMHO.

Having said that if they truly want Daz studio to be their Flag ship application they need to take a serious look at the render engine and the animation editing tools.
A proper GRAPH EDITOR & DOPE SHEET.
Cobbling together  various aniblocks in DS is nice and all
but for serious refinement I find I have to do that in posers aging animation tools .
