that's how hip hop and pop is. The secret is guitars sound like guitars lol. yes there is minutia that guitar players can obsess over but the average person isn't going to notice or care so it's inherently navel gazey shit.

When I started producing I started thinking more big picture, how all the elements work together in the song and in the mix (since i'm a recording engineer by trade) and that little minutia in the guitar just matters way a lot less when you're thinking about more than just the guitar.
