These now instantly ring everyone's slop alarm bells. I'd choose any set over them.

Completely disagree, don't know of anyone who'd share that opinion.

Don't worry, after a few years everyone will agree with me. 2 years ago I was talking about the "Not just X, but Y" slop marker and no one had an idea what I was talking about. Now even the average corporate marketer recognizes it as an immediate slop hallmark. Slop websites, and Lucide being one of their hallmarks, are now where that phrase was 2 years ago.

Why you don't like this set? You feel negative after looking at their website or you have a more serious reason?

It's used by 99% of slop websites because it's the go to of any LLM if not prompted to do otherwise.
