Why did so many pioneers of certain subgenres didn't like to be associated with it?

[2]

Robert Fripp of King Crimson was suspicious of the term prog rock.

Portishead didn't like the term trip hop.

Low didn't like their music to be branded as slowcore.

And even a band like Cypress Hill avoided to be branded as latin hip hop to be not too niche for their genre.

I'm sure there are many more examples. What do you make of this? Shouldn't these folks to be proud to have found a good niche? Or did they feel it was too limiting to their music
