i just feel like those who mock are similar to Company A who come out with Product(tm) or PromotionalDealDuJour and then Company B, C and D do exactly the same thing. the example that comes to mind is how Subway's $5 Footlong. I dont even LIKE Subway, but for $5 ill take a sandwich. Meanwhile I LOVE LOVE LOVE Quiznos and while they also have the $5 subs, its really doesnt come up on my radar in the way Subway would. Quiznos is doing what Subway is doing, but i doubt they are going to accomplish what Subway did - in my opinion, kept their name relevant and on everyone's mind (cause lord knows i cant get that jingle out my head).
theyre doing what the first ones did, but not necessarily trying to accomplish what the first ones accomplished (or end up missing the mark overall).

I think your analogy misses the mark.
