I would say that it's a hive-mind feeling of laziness about the effort put in, starting with mechanics-copying. I don't think anyone would ever say X is a ripoff of Y if X uses totally different Z mechanics, even if the graphics are similar. It's when the mechanics are recycled that it'd better be more original in other aspects.
