Well, it does if I'm mixing my metaphors, which I am.

It's one thing to deal with OOC in-universe deities. You could use special out-of-continuum god-killing measures to get at them, or otherwise render them powerless so that they could be eliminated. When it's actually a version of the World One Judeo-Christian God with a big G, getting rid of him is essentially saying "Yeah, we killed God." and that, well, it's not exactly a good thing to be assassinating World One religious figures, even in the form of character replacements.
It's why barely anyone goes into fanfiction based on religious doctrines. It exists, since people will write badfic about anything, but it wouldn't exactly look good if one's characters were on record as having shoved a duplicate of Jesus into a volcano.
