I'm not trying to give anyone a hard time for liking this kind of AU. It's totally a you-do-you thing. But I don't think the type of original fiction story you describe is the same thing at all. The whole point, in original fiction, is that this character who has powers (or is special in some way), has to live as a normie. The premise isn't, "Imagine this character never was special and never had powers, they've always just been a normie." The premise is, "They were special and had powers but now they can't use them, or they've lost them for some reason, and they have to live as a normie."

In order for original fiction to be comparable to a fanfic AU, you'd have to have a show where the first two seasons were Merlin, and then suddenly in season three the show became Dawson's Creek. Same actors, same character names, but now everyone's a normal high school student.
