Hmm, can I please direct you to have a look here.

Compared with:

It seems you're relying on intuition and past experience to draw your conclusions. I know statistics are not absolute but this is just one indicator among many of a trend in the market.

I don't think that means anything. Well, it does to content creators, and to DAZ, but not necessarily to SM.

Poser is supposed to be a complete package, and I suspect most users do not buy content for it. They just use what comes with it. SM doesn't care if they buy content or not, because their profit is from selling the software, not the content.

And if you're doing a workplace safety video, or instructions for a Wal-Mart checkout, or a medical diagram...what do you need to buy? The clothing, hair, etc. that comes with Poser is enough. (I've noticed a lot of the Poser guys are bald in these productions. Hair is still a pain, after all these years.)
