There are Christians outside the LC who are resistant to anything "new" (like the KJV-only crowd), but it's probably fair to say that the resistance to change has nothing to do with staying true to the ministry of one man. That's what the RcV problem is really about.

It's really a shame that there would be this facade of producing the "best" or most "accurate" translation, only come to find that there were conflicts of interest involved. That's not even to mention the ministry office shenanigans happening when the NT RcV was being produced. That's a whole different story.
