Is this really a thing though? It's a small group of ungrounded people and con artists trying to make money with absurdities like you mention, rather than a widespread phenomenon. Multiverse theory was "woo" until it wasn't. The problem is not with these uneducated fools, but rather with the "woo" category being overly broad and preventing any alternative theories from being posited. Scientists with valid credentials and a body of work are getting bucketed in the "woo" category because their ideas don't fit the prevailing model.
