Can someone explain why the Phoenix model isn't nude?

So this was the first mod I tried on LE and loved it. I don't know why vanilla Skyrim didn't include such a fine model. I couldn't help but notice a few things

 

- Phoenix has custom daedric armor that is always "on" even if you remove her armor from her.

- Enjoying her view when she moves or goes to sit down, you can see very slight nipple reveals on her skin right next to her armor.

- Investigating her texture files reveals that she does indeed have a naked body and textures to go with it, although it appears to be a vanilla used for every female base. Regardless, the data is there.

 

I know Phoenix wasn't programmed to wear any other armor but this got me thinking, what prevented the author from designing her as a nude model first and adding daedric armor second? This becomes strange when you can tell he used a nude model of her first before fitting the armor on and sticking it as her default.

 

I see he also supports CBBE so you can use her nude, but I really liked how self contained the Phoenix mod was and how easy it was to install so my questions are:

 

- How hard would it be to make Phoenix nude by default, not using things like bodyslide but just a basic default body like the one she was built on. Something included in her .esp mod file. Any steps or software I can use to make that happen?

- How difficult would it be to add animations for removing her daedric armor or clothing to show her nude model.

- How hard would it be to allow you to lay with her in bed.

- And probably most difficult, but basic sex animations while in bed and a bj option from her follower menu?

 

I was thinking this would be great as a single install file like she has now although I'm sure the size would go up but would help avoid installing CBBE OSTIM SL bodyslide etc as it's a lot to learn about for a newbie. 

Also just really attracted to the idea that she could have these options on a single install file that simply works on LE.
