It is pretty much the same as when Jack Bruce & Ginger Baker got another guitarist (Clem Cleamons, ex-Humble Pie guitarist)...it still wasn't Cream without Clapton. (although, they didn't call the band "Cream" either)
Fleetwood Mac in those days wasn't the same without Peter Green...but, they kept the name the same, therefore the comparisons were escalated. If they'd changed the name of the band after Peter left, then they might have fared better sooner.
