It doesn't matter if GSD is based off Zeta. In addition to individual taste, the order you watch them may also be a factor. If one became a Gundam fan by watching Wing / Seed / Seed Destiny and then go on to watch Zeta, I would think it'll be extremely difficult to prefer Zeta for the sole reason that it's not Wing / Seed / Seed Destiny and doesn't have Heero / Kira / Shinn / whoever.
It sorts of remind me of the Final Fantasy VI & VII argument. The large majority of RPG fans that played VI first claim it's the best FF ever and VII is a pile of crap. But VII was the first RPG to become mainstream and introduced a lot of gamers to RPGs (I was one of them). Naturally, VII is my favorite RPG of all time. Now all these veteran RPG gamers keep telling me VII is overrated and I should play classics such as VI or Chrono Trigger or Dragon Quest V, but no matter how much I want to like them, I'm always left disappointed.
It's not really fair but that's reality.
