Reposting my comment from the first time around…

Are you sure you’ve read both sets of books?

Potterverse Goblins: preoccupied with wealth and banking, portrayed as generally sinister with at least a few specifically evil individuals and no specifically good or noble individuals.

Discworld Dwarves: preoccupied with mining and forging things (especially out of precious metals or stones), portrayed as a) one flawed-but-understandable side of a both-sides conflict with a varied range of individual characterizations (including many highly sympathetic ones) and b) an immigrant community coming to terms with their traditional culture mixing with a diverse urban melting pot

There’s some overlap on the mythologies they draw from, but they go in very different directions with that inspiration. It’s not hard to see why these very different executions would result in very different reactions.
