It doesn't make sense to me, either. Maybe it's due to a mismatch between the quality of the posts and their prominence? WrongBot's posts generated tons of discussion, more than posts at that score and quality level normally do, so maybe on a subconscious level, some people to felt as though attention had been misallocated.
More discussion isn't necessarily a good thing if they degenerate into flame wars, though that hasn't been the case here, despite a few somewhat inflammatory remarks by MichaelVassar.
Another explanation: if in a given week we have five great posts and five "meh" ones, you won't hear a lot of moaning about the low quality of the "meh" ones. It seems that this week we've pretty much only had "meh" posts.
