erhaps because the KJV was too vague and left too much to interpretation, and so various groups wanted to impose a more standard, more readable, less arguable "spin" on the text to suit their particular wishes for political, and social norms?

No doubt. The oddity that struck me was the timing. KJV was fine for a couple of centuries and then common beliefs fragmented, and not just split in two or three but so extensively, and more or less all at once. Perhaps something like the social unrest, war protesting and what not of the 60's and 70's was some sort of trigger.
