"Everybody" doesn't agree, and therein lies the problem.
Most of the posts I see citing (ball) golf, imply that we should change something because golf does it. (Excluding all the threads about getting disc golf courses on (ball) golf courses.)
I agree we should take what's useful to us, but only because it's useful to us, not because it's useful to golf.
Historically, golf has encountered and 'solved' many of the issues faced by disc golf. It's a truism to save time and effort by modeling, which doesn't mean 'copying'. A better word might be 'adapting'...
