Hm, I don't think it's a trend (although I'm not sure if my observations are representative). From what I have seen people felt like his writing was subpar, which became even more obvious after Emet-Selch's arc because many people really appreciated the way the latter was written. For many, myself included, Zenos felt very one-dimensional and his motivation to kill us seemed really lack-luster and forced.
Of course, how one perceives writing is subjective, so I'm not saying people who like him are wrong but that's what I have observed.
So when Emet-Selch died after ShB and Zenos was implied to be a, if not the major villain of EW several players (again, myself included tbh) thoughtit was a big letdown/downgrade to go from what we would perceive as the complexity level and the writing quality of an Emet-Selch to Zenos, and for the very last expansion at that.

I second this.
