I think some of DAZ's content is awesome. But they should be in Poser format.

I agree. But what each individual vendor creates is up to the vendor. I am hoping more start creating Poser content as well.

I've found DS-format props' DSF mesh can usually be 'ripped' to portable OBJ format using eg $$ DSF Toolbox, but I've yet to figure how to extract their morphs. Also, textures may prove a pain.
OBJ file-size is usually around 3x that of DSF but, sometimes the mesh conversion goes badly, so OBJ bloats beyond acceptable: YMMV...
Has anyone managed to use DS clothing converted to OBJ format as 'feedstock' for Poser Dynamics ? ..
I seem to have a mental block for both DS & Blender, both having UIs that give me a 'prompt migraine', In theory, DS can export several Poser-compatible formats. In practice, I get migraines...
And please don't start me on FBX versions or rigging varieties lest I cry on my key-board...

I'm hoping for "DAZ content" to be made as Poser content to begin with. Example: Victoria 8 or Genesis 8 created for Poser instead of importing from DAZ.

It was like that a very long time ago. But DAZ has decided to take another route. Some vendors may provide for both platforms but those are becoming far and few between.
