Firstly, of course people have every right to feel disappointed, frustrated, angry, etc about this rebooted season and I'm not trying to downplay the strong feelings some have about it. However, two things need to be said about your point.
Firstly, despite what some here want to believe, there's seemingly a spectrum of views about what we've seen so far and I think it's unfair that some of those who are disappointed have continually challenged or get outraged at those who don't agree with them rather than acknowledge that reasonable people can have different views about the same show.
Secondly, what I was getting to with my original post is there is a huge difference between measured, grounded criticism based on things that have or haven't occurred and bad faith criticism which is (among other things) exaggerated and OTT. For example, there are some who participate in the live threads who within a few minutes of a daily show beginning suggest (among other things) it'll bad just so they can repeatedly criticise everything they don't like and respond to those who share their views with "I told you so" type posts. To me, that is the definition of bad faith criticism because they're pushing a pre-determined agenda based on how they feel rather than legitimately responding to what they're seeing (or not seeing).
It was clearly articulated during the lead-up to BB's return that the "OG format" references were about bringing back the key pillars of that era rather than every single aspect of it:
Don't know how you've drawn that conclusion when one look at my post history would demonstrate I've been highly critical of key aspects of this series from how badly combining daily shows with live elements such as an eviction has turned out to the 'rest day'.
