I'm a fan of classic BG games, played it countless times since release 20 years ago and I'm VERY happy with this EA. So you're generalizing and you're wrong.
Building off of that, I've seen multiple posts about classic BG fans who were actively dissuaded from trying the game by rhetoric like Mr_Planescapist's here, but ended up liking the EA when they tried it. And as a 5e aficionado, I also am very happy with the EA in general.

I honestly hope you have a most marvelous day!
