I think the reason behind all hate, which is unjustified indeed, is because this is a 1st party game with the name "remastered" in it. Had it been a 3rd party release, noone would react. I do think a game needs to be a few years older to justify the term "remastered", but those are just small details. I am quite sure this hate won't affect the sales one bit, just buy the game and enjoy it :).

Anything that works the original master to a different media or retouch the quality is a remaster since it reddo the master... actually all ports are remasters in a way even if they keep everything equal.

Yes, and by that reasoning COD on PS4 and X1 would be called COD:Remastered :).

The terms "Remastered" or "Anniversary" is used to signal a return to an older game where the graphics have been updated significantly (think Halo:Anniversary) or altered in other significant ways. Using it on a year old game, even though you are technically right, send the signal that ii is more of a cashgrab than a fan service. I believe it to be both, just like with every rerelease of a game, but using the words "remastered" hasn´t helped them one bit, especially on such a recent game.

I still find the negative reaction silly, but I can see where the perspecitive of the cashgrabbing has been emphasized when they use the word "remastered".
