It's dismissive of people's valid opinions of the game. Review bombing is more when people brigade reviews for things that have nothing to do with the game itself, like people bombing Harry Potter because they were pissed about JK Rowling's tweets.

Ok, I can see that distinction. I'm definitely not dismissing their opinions. I don't personally see any issue with the term being used like this, and I think people are review bombing it for a good reason. I can understand where you're coming from though now that you've explained it.
