It's not an opinion. You're mistaking the music being good or not with it being generic and similar or not. One is partly subjective and I did not talk about it, one is purely objective.
I don't care if you like her music, you can like it if you want to. But her music is highly generic so bringing her up in a discussion about music becoming flat and generic is like bringing up Twilight as a positive example in a discussion about well-developed characters.
Her ballads follow highly similar compositional formulas very engraved in mainstream, moreso than those of the vast majority of singers, as do her more upbeat songs but not as extremely, and the same can be said about her lyrical themes. All very limited.

She is a great vocalist though. Even if her headvoice, falsetto and whistle register are rather weak and impressive only for their range. Her chestvoice was really great in the 90s especially.
