1-The reason why "Frozen" was changed is because they couldn't Disneyfy "The Snow Queen" due to how dark it was. Tellingly, a live action NON-DISNEY version of "The snow Queeen" was released that is closer to the original fairy tale:



2-In the end, if the core concept is good, you shouldn't change that. Even unfaithful movies like "Jaws" or "The Godfather" are considered classics because they retain the core concept of the source material.

This movie, by changing the Big Hero 6's powers, personalities and backstory, is changing the core concept to the point where it's just "six superhero band together and fight evil", which Disney could do without bothering to get its claws on Scott Lobdell's creation. Everything that made the original comic book unique, funny and interesting is being changed for the movie.
