I could always fix up the history for the software/mascots as looking up Cul's Software page it's un-necessary to mention the how VocaloRevolution appearance (besides the fact it inspired the product).

Much like how I was going to add software boxart to the software pages but got too lazy/stressed >_>"

All i'm willing to say about the split is that a character can be associated with many products. In the game example you get certian characters like Mario in (obviously) the Mario series but you also find him in sub-series like Super Smash Bros, heck first time Mario appeared in any game was in Donkey Kong (Which clearly has nothing to do with Mario as a game series, just the character Mario).

Putting this back into a Vocaloid sense you have Miku who has a V2 and Append software, the character Miku essentially makes a link between these 2 sister products which aren't the same. Miku also has links to the Project Diva games as she appeared in them, this however is not directly linked to the actual Vocaloid software, even though the voices from the software have been used (The software in itself is not part of the game, just the product(s) of the software, much like an image from Photoshop). Basically the character pages act as a link between things that are related to the product in-directly.

I'll give you that it doesn't seem all that necessary for all Vocaloids besides the Cryptons ( + Gumi) but personally I find it neater to have it for all Vocaloids.
