Yes, but is it because that is the look they prefer or is it because there is no real alternative out there ?
I think it's because it's the look people prefer.
Look at the characters and morphs sold for Vicky. Rather than being more realistic, they push her even further in the Barbie direction. Bigger boobs, smaller waist, bigger eyes, bigger lips, longer legs, etc. than the DAZ default.
is it purely a fact that it is "easier" for vendors to create these morphs based on the current skeleton/skin models than it would be to stretch the limitations? and subsequently we get what is available and as it happens so many times with other products we rush out and buy the bells and whistles to add to our toys, when what we really want is a new toy completely. I don't know, from the small number of posters in this thread and several others, it doesn't seem like demand will outstrip the willingness to supply but yet the possibility still has a market.
Whether or not anyone will create such a beast remains to be seen. I don't have the skillset to accomplish anything close and probably wouldn't have for quite some time, I'm sure many do but they probably haven't the time or inclination to produce something that may or may not be well recieved and or profitable.
