It's not a replacement. My opinion on this as a stakeholder is that is meant for different audience that Yeoman serves. Ultimately we have produced a highly opinionated stack that developers can start with and customize as they like (or not if they don't want to). This lets developers who are experienced quickly start and manipulate it, and lets developers who don't know what a good workflow looks like be set up for success straight away. Yeoman on the other hand gives you complete control over how you want your project to be started and assumes that you know all the answers to the questions the generator poses. I also like that Web Starter Kit is just a simple download that you can extract and be good to go with.
