I struggle see anything that adds more personality to the sims as a bad thing. The lifestyles and sentiments are what I'm looking forward to the most. I very much hope that they won't turn out to be another N.A.P type disaster.
I was actually quite excited for Eco Lifestyle originally but now sadly I play with it's main feature turned off. The N.A.P's are actually awful and so incredibly pointless at the same time. The Eco Footprint does whatever it wants. My current family has done nothing towards improving the environment and the meter is still moving up and down as it pleases.
