Not saying Strait and Haggard aren't great, but there can only be one of each of them, just like there can only be one George Jones or Johnny Cash. Most artists who tried to copy them didn't have as successful of careers, and their music wasn't as good.
Country music can have more than just extremely traditional or outlaw sub-categories and still fall into the genre of country. Individual styles shouldn't be considered a bad thing.
It seems to me, country music fans would be happy about the fact that there are more people listening to the music and becoming familiar with all styles of it than ever before. I have never understood why traditional and outlaw country music fans dislike having a variety of country music styles which thereby creates a broader fan base. It's just very closed-minded and illogical to me, and obviously, I'm not alone in that way of thinking.

because the music being made now isn't country music. and more people being fans is pretty meaningless
