Double Rigs in model

I noticed when Gen 8 was brought into Motion Builder and looking in the schematic view...there were 2 rigs. the second had a 1 appended to it. Upon further investigatioin the second rig is coming from the eyelashes. In the Daz scene window, the lashes are parented to Genesis 8 Female. And yet they have thier own rig. Can I remove this second rig and just leave eyelashes parented to Genesis 8 head bone ? Is second rig really needed for Gen 8 animation ?? Gen 3 doesn't have this problem (?) as lashes are somewhere in Gen 3 as part of the base object. Is there a reason Gewn 8 is seperate that I am missing ?

You shouldn't need to worry about animating the eyelashes in Mobu, since they'll autofollow the main figure once you bring them back into DS (assuming that's your objective).
Was just trying to clean up and straighten MOBU schematic, and was wondering if I could get file size down to work faster. There was a youtube guy that said to remove eyelashes and face rigs as all I would need in MOBU were the main bones....soo just checking.
