It makes it easier to pose limbs instead of having to use the dials to do it, which makes animation easier. Poser is pretty much the only app out there that uses a dial system for posing and animating figures. Most other apps use a direct manipulator with the arrows and curves to twist pull and scale the different body parts in whatever manner necessary.

There's only about 10 give or take 5 CGI Artist on the planet that can make a Vicky

There is nothing special about vicky, she's not even realistically proportioned, and there are many many artists out there that can and do do far better. Just look through the zbrush galleries, or any of the other high-end cg sites outere. lol, really rorrkonn, sometimes...
