I have her in my runtime along with many other figures. That is why I see Scarlet as a welcome addition and the efforts of the artists as a welcome contribution. Although, I have never subscribed to the idea that there needed to be only one figure that did it all. Variety is the spice of  life.

"I think that is more true now than ever.  In the old days, a figure was a big investment.  You'd have to buy clothes, textures, hair, etc. for it. And it was all wicked expensive.
With the material room and fitting room and dynamics, it's possible to use figures that don't have a lot of support.  Not to mention a lot items are pretty cheap these days, so the stuff you do buy isn't the huge investment it used to be. "

I agree, that the adoption of a new figure usually does require a significant investment, but as you pointed out the fitting room has helped in that and I have definitely grown quite fond of using dynamic clothing. It is fairly easy to adapt dynamic clothes from figure to figure. I'll bet it would not be too hard to adapt some to Scarlet, which might alleviate some of the cost burden for people who choose to adopt her. Also, I have found that fitting hair to just about any figure is pretty easy so...
