If you're the GM, you can ignore it. Just say "No gunslingers, no katanas, no X". Easy. I love guns, but there are some games where I don't allow them because it doesn't fit. Other games, I have not allowed elves or psionics or whatnot. More GMs need to learn how to set parameters and not be afraid of saying no.
And if you're a player? Well, why would you join a game that has stuff you don't like in the first place :p
Simple. They're trying to teach people that their way is "The One True Way To Play" and that any other is BadWrongFun.
I, for one, salute Paizo for ignoring these sorts and giving us firearms and other technological stuff in their game. It's been something sorely lacking in these games for quite some time with few exceptions outside of specific game systems like Shadowrun.
