I am neutral about steampunk; it neither sets my imagination on fire nor turns me off. So I look at the ire and tend to think, "Some people don't like to see others have fun, do they?"
After seeing "Avatar: The Last Airbender", Janelle Monae remarked that she not only enjoyed the movie, she also got some insights into life. She was familiar with the criticisms about the movie's casting, so she remarked that sometimes we are too busy ripping something apart to enjoy and learn from a thing. Some of that may be going on with the harsher critics of steampunk, too.
