OY.

Barring PERSONAL problems with Apollo Max's creator (yeah I went there), what does Genesis have that really most folks want that Apollo Max can already do?

It is the morphability and the scaling.

Does Apollo Max with his OLD TECH have that? Yes.

Can knowlegdeable artisans here fix what few problems there are with the mesh?

I believe they can.

If, as was proposed, that a NEW OWNER take over the mesh, update what needs to be updated and MAKE IT CLEAR with whom content creators are dealing with then can we keep him?

Is the Apollo Mesh known? As was stated he's FREE (albeit under circumstances).

What would it take for Content Creators to create stuff for him? I'll hazard a guess it was not working with the mesh that made content creators give up.

Eliminate one factor and perhaps open up to another....
