Usually all you have is head position and hand position. You don't have torso tracking separate from head tracking and because of that doing elbow IK can be really hard. This style keeps you out of the uncanny valley.

Although, the realistic torso shape might go a bit too far.

Worth noting Hubs is more like Wordpress for social VR - the content is largely up to the user (to either adopt or create) - so the avatars in screenshots say less about some kind of universal art design choices than whatever specific setup the user was in.
