Headscarves could be seen as cultural when worn as an accessory, useful to protect from the sand, the wind, and the sun. But hijabs are a very peculiar (and I would argue, recognizable) kind or headscarf, worn for other reasons (you know, those that-must-not-be-named except in threads about muslim outfits in which we can discuss modesty all we want). Those are only part of one interpretation of Islam (the one that starts with a R and ends with a L) that as you said not all muslims agree with.
In any case EA added burkinis as well, which are very far from being cultural and don't even exist in most arabian and middle-eastern cultures, and you would have a hard time arguing they are just cultural and it is people who twisted their otherwise empty meaning. There is a reason EA doesn't want us to talk about it on its very forums, and it is because it is religious and political.
