Am I the only one who is turned off by a car that I will see at least 2 dozen times during any given commute?

Kind of like you are differentiating yourself with an inciteful colloquialism?
Had they not showed the "concept", the reactions would have been much more favorable and akin to every other WRX refresh the last decade.
Which two or three are you referring to?

An XV crosstrek is a straight up Impreza 5-door +3" lift with some cladding. Calling it a unique vehicle concept in itself is a stretch.
I owned a WRX for 7 years. Subaru was the closest thing to this with the GC coupe way back in 1999.
Too many doors (and pounds) and too much slushbox.
