There's the problem itself. The difference between New 52 and rebirth is objectively significant. Whether or not it's interesting is subjective. "Yeah they're doing something else, but I don't like it " kind of contradicts the criticism that they should aim to do something different to appease someone who asks for something different.

But we just had a poll here, and I remember Rebirth Superman beating previous versions except post crisis. That doesn't speak for all of fandom, but even at this point where it's likely we haven't seen the best this new direction has to offer (it's been about 18 months so far ) that's not a bad assertion that the current direction has legs.
