This is not about "feeling differently". There is no "stealing" of code or intellectual property, so as far as incubation is concerned this is a non-argument. Another example: Chukwa, Flume and Ambari. The're all incubating, with significant overlap in features and technical architecture. So what? If successful, some or all of them may become TLPs. I didn't notice similar turf-related complaints from those projects.
