I understand thinking it looks simple and not wanting it, but it's not like it's replacing a mainline game, so little more than a "Huh, not for me" doesn't seem too warranted

It kind of is in that we're definitely not getting another Gen 1 remake for at least 10-14 years due to this. Before Let's Go Pikachu/Eevee you could make the case that FR/LG were more deserving of remakes than D/P/P, which was an unpopular take but IMO a very valid one, but this game is definitely in place of a FR/LG remake. It even follows a pattern:

FR/LG was 8 years after R/B
HG/SS was 10 years after G/S
OR/AS was 12 years after R/S
LGP/LGE are 14 years after FR/LG
