5e is not and does not cover what 4e does. What it tries to do is the things 4e does badly. More accurately, 5e is aimed at being everyone’s second favourite version of D&D (and the favourite of a number of 2E fans).
I don’t care, quite frankly. And your post indicates why people shouldn’t bother caring - it’s a waste of effort trying to debate anything with fanatics. There are millions of fans, new and old, buying into 5th Edition now which gives me all the people I need to game with. 4E is yesterday’s news, no matter how a shrinking minority of blowhard gamers try to argue otherwise. And in saying that, I’ll not perpetuate this ‘debate’ any longer - I’m outtie.
EDIT: For the record, looking at online reviews it is clear that 5E isn’t ‘everyone’s second favourite edition’ - in most cases it’s their favourite.
