For the voice comparison there isn't actually any problem with it unless you use it to bash the Vocaloid. Similar sounding vocals can potentially in fact put one at an advantage, especially when you consider Kokone's case where she has one of the largest ranges of all Vocaloids.

As for the release date when it comes to Vocaloids in general it has been known for companies to quietly work on a voice and perhaps give some sort of sneak peak into them. Meaning that there's a high chance that Internet Co has been working on her for a while now and has only decided to reveal her. Only time can tell if this was in fact the right move to make but at this point who knows.
