I'm simultaneously confused why anyone thinks people who previously cared about Manba will like him any less now that Chougi is here, and - even if for some reason they did - why anyone cares that other people would prefer the new sword.

At any rate, Chougi probably would have felt that people comparing him with the replica (and often not favorably - my understanding is that a lot of people preferred the Kunihiro sword) was chipping away at his identity, so being the REAL Yamanbagiri is what he has to cling to. It leaves a lot of room for exploration and character development for both swords.
