It's still the same premise. Harry grows up as an orphan with his aunt and uncle after Voldemort killed his parents. Unaware of magic until he receives the letter from Hogwarts. On the train he meets Hermione and Ron who are not that different from the original, and in the end he has to face Voldemort who's trying to steal the philosophers stone. So selling it as something else is probably not something the author could have gotten away with without legal trouble.
I didn't realize the story followed the original that closely. Thank you for enlightening me.
