"Some of this might have been valuable input into the creation of the base character."

As soon as you dare to critizise a figure, even if it is well founded technical advise, the rabid supporters are over you like white on rice.

Add to that merchants who don't want any "negative publicity" tainting the monetary success of a figure, and you know why professional discussions about figure design are not possible.

After a while it simply gets old trying to discuss things with people who simply don't have the technical proficiency to understand what is discussed.

I could write a long list of things that are technically wrong with Dawn (Or most other DAZ/Poser figures for that matter), make comparison renders and explain every flaw and it's possible solution.

But what's the point ?

Those who like Dawn will keep on using her anyway and will just be offended because I'm not "positive" and "supporting" enough.

I rather spend my time creating more stuff for myself.

The Poserverse is broken anyway, so I guess people get what they deserve.
