An inferior design is being attributed to a pair of respected designers who didn't do the work. The only reason to do this is to try to cash in on the respect that collectors have for these designers, and all this is happening after the designers have parted ways with the company pushing said inferior design. If there's hostility it's not toward a lumpy bit of kiln-fired slurry, but towards the people who would mislabel it to try to gain sales. They might as well have labeled it "Tiki Eames Shag Witco L@@K!"
