"I was lead to believe that Aspects in WGP were original and groundbreaking. What the heck is going on here?"

Trolling?

Seriously, there's nothing inherently good about originality in a game system. Pretty much the sole good is "working well to achieve the explicit or implicit goals".

They're also very similar to abilities in Heroquest. The idea works well there.
