This just proves the point:

The tool doesn't make bad karaoke. The karaokeer makes bad karaoke.

(Wait, I think I just used the "guns don't kill people, people kill people" argument? Crap. I'm totally against guns)
But the analogy can be extended (and don't we all just love an extended metaphor?). Guns are more likely to be used to kill people. There are certain karaoke tools that are simply more likely to be used to create overdone and overly flashy karaoke effects simply because that's what they're geared towards.

One doesn't have to use AE to create a set of effects that most people find excessive. It's just that more people seem to do so because it's that much easier to do.

Guns don't kill people. People kill people. It's just a lot easier to do it with a gun than with a wet noodle.
