This doesn't actually answer my question. It explains the mechanism of the appeal, but still assumes that higher levels of appeal are what define "real" entries in a series. I am asking you why you assume that. The way that appeal works has nothing to do with it.

You experienced something you liked and see something that has the same name. You give it a closer look and then you can decide whether it's the real thing or something that just carries the same name for the purpose of selling you something different.

But that's pretty much the same thing I previously said, right?

So how about my answer to your original question is simply common sense.

Alternately, just pretend that I've fallen into your trap and post what you have prepared.

No need to be short with me. What you consider common sense is rooted in your own value set. Remember that.

What it comes down to is this:

You insist that the (simple) majority dictate what the "real" series is. What you don't explain is why they get to decide that.
