Or they might be put off by something in the sound that sounds too much and/or/but not enough like a flat top?
I've heard this before, but is it possible to be a bit more specific if not quantitative?
Is this a representative comparison, maybe?
Here, the x-braced sibling has this "ooh, ahh" effect when you first hear it after the other, but in the end I think it's all a bit too much, a super-stimulus or, to put it impolitely, as if there's a good added laddle of flavour enhancers (glutamates). The parallel-braced guitar's sound grows on you, and seems a lot more refined and versatile.
