Certainly the reception outside of the forums seems quite positive, due to the fact that they don't think the World is going to end because of one DLC.
And what if the Aztec DLC was the trigger to December 21st? After all, maya and aztecs, they're all the same

Now we know who to blame
In all seriousness, I kind of hope that all the ridiculousness on this forum last night will go away with the morning (at least in my timezone. Even though i'm in the "anti" camp on this one, I don't care as much as some people clearly do. This has led to a serious decay of discourse on the forum in one day. Seriously, that guy just posted an image macro. Can't we get back to being snotty and pseudo professorial to each other in tried and true Pdox tradition?
Really though, Aztecs?

For several long seconds, I stared at my computer date, it says November first. November is not April... does not compute.

You are factually incorrect. There is literally no feature in SOI that is not in a vanilla patched game other than the ability to play Muslims.
A fantasy game about wizards with an expansion set in the Vietnam War!?
Strange that a post of mine from yesterday was pulled up, even though I've already switched to a pro-Aztec stance. After it gradually sinking in that this is an amusing side-project thing rather than a patch-based expansion like LoR.
I thought it was funny rhetoric, honestly. It was hyperbole rather than slippery slope, anyway. :/
Why all the rage? You don't have to buy this if you don't want it. I know i want it badly, crusader kings 2 was never meant to simulate reality anyway. An aztec invasion is quite possible just as Vikings in Canada, and Mongol Conquest was possible back then, even if it is silly & ahistorical there's nothing to sneer at. Even if making a dlc on it seems like a money-grubbing tactic, i'm looking forward to it, although I would prefer an expansion pack set in the americas with the main characters being viking colonists in Vinland.
Orson Scott Card's sci-fi/time travel novel Pastwatch: Redemption of Christopher Columbus includes a timeline in which a Tlaxcalan empire invades Europe in the 16th century.
Frankly, the more I think about this idea, the more I find it inspired for its complete inversion of the usual "Europeans go out and take someone's land" colonisation scenario. What would happen if it were the Europeans that were faced with a superior opponent suddenly landing on the Atlantic shores out of the blue?
"Odd looking strangers in exotic ships came ashore today … it seemed they wanted land in exchange for their baubles!"
