But some at least were not new to the series, only new to fandom. They had been quietly nurturing their fannishness, alone and in private, for a decade or more, and this inevitably individuated their interpretation of the series. And these interpretations subsequently proved to be at odds with what fandom had been doing over that decade, hence the impulse to break away from the established fandom tradition.
This is a very convincing narrative. (I was new to the series, fwiw...)
