I agree that the phrase game changer is loose in this aspect, but the capabilities of the 7+ are much better than that of the 6S+. Depth of field and even a hint of optical zoom put it above the 6S+ by a fair amount in my opinion. Is it worth an upgrade for you? Hell no. But, you can't say that these features aren't great.

The first to market argument isn't the right way to think about tech. Someone is always going to figure out how to do something first. It's the people that take that and make it better that win out. You see it in apps, you see it in hardware, you see it in cars, etc. Being first doesn't necessarily make you the best.
Apple definitely lags a bit because they can (market share, revenue, etc.). Other manufacturers are trying to eat that market share by being first to market. While I don't agree with Apples method as a consumer, it makes sense from a business perspective.
