Windmills and water-wheels, really. They're cool, they move, and they're pretty.
But I think part of the hate comes from the following:
1.) Flowerchild is very vocal and resolute about his own beliefs and philosophy. If someone doesn't agree with his opinions, then FC isn't going to change them to make that person happier.
2.) Better Than Wolves's design philosophy can be easily misinterpreted as a statement of superiority. Also, a lot of people like wolves, and don't want to shut them up in a dank, dark hole.
3.) BTW is fairly different in both style and tone when compared to the other mods included in the pack. Equivalent Exchange, Buildcraft, Industrialcraft, and Redpower all focus on very specific aspects of Minecraft and improve them radically. Better than Wolves on the other hand is a general-purpose upgrade to the philosophy and design of vMC, and is further from completing its stated goals than the other mods.
The others add functionality, then balance. FC balances, then adds functionality. Why else wouldn't we have the lens block yet? =]
4.) For better or for worse, we're the community that showed up on the SA forums first after the incident. That made us the immediate target.
So yeah, a number of reasons for the FC-hate.
