People sometimes need no a reason but a pretext to create a coin fork. After the BTC/BCH split the general concept of chain hard forking was discovered and many pointless forks was created.
Hard forking has been around a long time, LTC was a hard fork of Bitcoin, as was Doge. It didn't start with BCH.
Litecoin was a fork of codebase not a fork of a chain.
