I was wondering if maybe people wouldn't want me to post this, but I figure this is the world we live in and these are the memes we're given.

Just saw an interview with Peter Gabriel where he said people come up to him almost daily and tell him how they much they loved Trick of the Tail. He just had this defeated look on his face when he said he had to keep telling them that was Phil and not him.
However, you may be overestimating the impact of Hackett's departure on their shift to pop. Genesis the band was deeply in debt by that point and they really had to make the shift to more accessible pop in order to become profitable. Additionally, this was a time when all of the prog rockers (except Robert Fripp) were selling out: Asia (supergroup formed from Yes, King Crimson and ELP), ELP themselves (with their hilariously awful Love Beach album) and later Yes with 90125.
Many years ago, I had the pleasure of being at a table at a con next to the late Richard Hatch. The con was pretty disappointing in terms of turn-out, so I kept him cracking up all day.
When people came up to his table and go, "you're uh... uh..." I would lean over to them and say quietly something like, "don't call him Dirk Benedict. He hates that." or "You know! Faceman from The A-Team!"
Thanks for bringing up a fun memory.
