If you're going to make a "Lunar New Year" set, you'd need to include things from other cultures as well. Otherwise make a different set for other asian cultures.

There's a lot of generalization of the name of our holiday. Commercialization of it is even worse, just as you've outlined
Lego does this because they have sufficient market demand for Chinese language speakers. They name it Lunar to minimize Sinophobic attacks, and this holiday is also celebrated by South Korea, Viet Nam, Singapore, Malaysia, and several other Asian countries.
I mentioned the recognition of this holiday of other Asian countries as well in an earlier post.
you may find LEGO Lunar New Year for 2023 is a rabbit

so if you know anything about Vietnam version of new year, 2023 is the year of cat.
it is pretty obvious LEGO actually meant chinese new year, or else they would have put something either in addition to, or not Rabbit for 2023.
ultimately, it is whatever that sales that important. i suppose the market for rabbit was just simply larger.

It's like arguing for removing "Christ" from "Christmas" just because it's also celebrated by people who don't practice Christianity religions.
