I agree the guttural thing is repetitious too, but I can't hear why the high piercing gets a pass.

Stylistics sameyness is definitely a thing, but a lot of times I find it easier to tell one singer from another with clean vocals than with the standard demon Screech or guttural growl. I know quite a few female fronted death metal bands where you definitely have no idea whether the person is male or female, and that's kind of cool in a way but also shows how reductive the style is.
I'm never going to mistake King Diamond for Rob Halford, or Messiah for Bruce Dickinson.
