Unless I'm misunderstanding his phrasing, but that's how it reads to me. Turning on origins for things in a scene can be a tedious process, so it begs the question "why did user turn them all on in the first place?" as they are off by default and have a very specific use. So conjecture says that for some reason they are appearing as on by default, which is not typical poser behavior. At most, if it were deliberate, user might need to turn off say one origin indicator. OP's post indicates that all actors are showing the indicator, pointing to some default scene behavior in error by his language.

Under certain circumstances it can make sense to switch on the Origins during the development of a scene. In order to create a quick, clean preview, a function for generally switching the origins can be useful.

But it is certainly also true that one can live without it :)
