There was NO reason to "re-imagine" it. None at all.
Ron Moore's version could very well have been named something else. Everything kept just the way you like, but with a different name.
Amazing how something as simple as that could have avoided so much conflict with fans.
If you truly like the "real science" aspects of Moore's version, then you would have liked it under any other name besides Battlestar Galactica as well.

AMEN TO THAT!
(I knew I needed a smilie, but none seemed appropriate) Of course, I've heard of people accusing Frank Herbert of stealing ideas in "Dune" from "Terminator" (which was made twenty years later), if people can be that stupid, I'm sure that even if you changed all the names there would still be one or two morons on the internet screaming "BSG RIP-OFF!" Especially with Light_Ship over at scifi.com inventing "Star TreK" cliches to find in TNS.
