"I like poser, as it lets us render what we want, as opposed to lux, which dictates what it allows. "
Not a LUX user here but the above quote is not a really Fair Characterization of LUX
if you are referring to any limitations of the various poser to LUX plugins
including "Reality 3" .
Poser lets you "render what you want"(NATIVELY) as long as what you "want" is within the limitations of poser current render system.
(Any Flickerless GI animation clips on the SM website yet??)
Apparently it is the opinion of some (myself included obviously),
that posers current native render system does not let us render what we subjectively "want" and "dictates what it allows" hence the small market for other solutions that render poser content
examples, vue, reality IPP for C4D etc etc.
"eternal struggle of man vs machine."
or more like, the eternal struggle of man trying to render purpose built CG content
in an outside render/shading system for which it was not intended.
Nothing wrong with that of course ,but any limitations encountered are not necessarily an indictment of the third party renderer we have chosen in lieu of the native poser one
