Seeing as how everyone has or needs the base character to use anything, Its a smart move. Pretty much has a target audience of anyone that uses G8F. I mostly get the random characters for specific morphs or textures and rarely use the character as it comes.
I certainly agree it is a smart move.
It always struck me as a no brainer they should be doing that from the time of Genesis 1 though.
I suppose their perception was that they should milk the sub bases as much as possible.

Male-M3Dia and Lyoness have been doing morph packs like this for years from G3M/F and G8M/F without skins or stuff like that. And even the Male-M3Dia guys have HD genitalia morphs which normally Daz doesn't allow except from a Published Artist. I buy all those sets because they are well done and work on every base figure, and expand what I can do.
So we will see if Daz does more of this in the future.
Recently the additional characters from the PAs with the Daz Originals have been a bit on the thin side, maybe Genesis 9 isn't ready yet so they are trying to drag Genesis 8 out a bit more.
